FOR : All Officials and EmployeesFROM : The Undersecretary for FPAO and Chair, DAR CMTSUBJECT WITHDRAWAL OF CMT-VALIDATED PERSONNEL PLACEMENTSDATE : 13 February 2014

We received queries from Heads of Offices and requests from personnel whose positions in theApproved Staffing Structure have been validated by the Change Management Team (CMTl butwanted to withdraw to vie for other vacant positions in the 2nd round of deliberations.While the CMT recognizes the right of personnel to apply to vacant positions in the IndicativeStaffing Pattern (ISP), it also aims to place as many employees as possible to ISP positions whichthey are most qualified at this most critical time. This would ensure the provision of enoughmanpower complement for the Department to fulfill its mandate and commitment to thePresident's Social Contract.Further, a great deal of time, effort, and resources have been devoted in the deliberation andvalidation of placements of personnel during the first ro\lnd of the Rationalization PlanImplementation primarily to boost the morale of DAR employees in working towards the attainmentof 2014 targets. It will be an immense disservice if all these will be for naught.In view of the foregoing, the CMT enjoins personnel whose placements have been validated by theCMT to refrain from applying to vacant positions during the 2nd rO\lnd of deliberations. Howevershould they still decide to apply to other positions, the follOWing rules will apply:1. Employees who are retained to rationalized reduced positions, (eg. 5 SARPOs in the ISP, while

existing filled SARPO is 7), may apply to vacant positions without a Waiver.2. Employees whose placement are either through lateral transfer, swapping or promotion mayapply to vacant positions upon execution of a Waiver.

3. Personnel whether permanent, temporary or contractual who are placed in the modified orcreated positions under the legal group or to co-terminous positions (confidential staff) mayapply to vacant positions upon execution of a Waiver.
