Other benefits

From the 13th month pay and the regular salaries, Sevilla also noted that the P6,000 clothing allowance has already been released to DepEd employees, too. But, the performance-based bonus (PBB) for teachers is still currently being processed; but some regions have already received theirs.

DepEd is consistently following up for other regions’ PBB and the request for reconsideration for eligibility to grant PBB for non-school-based personnel, as well.”

First-come, first-served basis

Sevilla noted that the reason why there were regions that received their PBBs fast was because of the first-come, first-served basis of the DBM. But everyone should be calm because theirs will arrive, too.

The Department was notified by the Department of Budget and Management (DBM) that four DepEd regional offices (Region II, IV-A, V, and XII) were already endorsed for processing and eventual releasing of PBB funds for school-based personnel.”

What do you think about the early release of the 13th month pay of public school teachers? How about the early salary releases? This is a great deal of assistance to everyone and we should all be thankful for our Philippine government.
