A Guide to Using the PNP ORAS

The Philippine National Police (PNP), is the civilian and armed national police force in the country. Their main head office or headquarters is in Camp Crame in Quezon City and they currently employ around 170,000 personnel. A lot of people has the incorrect thinking that if you are in the PNP, you will be part of the policemen who chases robbers and escaped criminals. No, there are far more jobs in the PNP that a lot of people fail to think about.

 

However, since it is the PNP, a majority of the professions there would mean that you are either on the police ladder or anywhere near that. In order for you to know what other jobs are available other than being part of the police force, you can read the Philippine National Police (PNP) Modified Base Pay Schedule 2019. In this article, you will see and know how much a specific PNP employee earns and it might entice you to be a part of their institution.

In this article, however, we will focus on PNP ORAS or the PNP Online Recruitment Application System (ORAS). In this guide, you will learn what the PNP ORAS is for and how it’s a good tool if you are looking to be a part of the PNP.
