The Bureau of Immigration (BI) has adopted a new and shorter work schedule following the discontinuance of the payment of overtime fees of its employees.<\/p>\n\n

Immigration Commissioner Jaime H. Morente said BI employees assigned at the main office and field, extension and satellite offices have started observing the new nine-hour work schedule\u00a0on Tuesday.<\/p>\n\n

The new work hours will be from\u00a08 a.m. to 5p.m.,\u00a0from the previous hours of\u00a07 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.<\/p>\n\n

\u200bEarlier, President Rodrigo Duterte vetoed the use of the express lane charges collected by the BI to augment the salaries of BI employees and pay the wages of its contractual workers.<\/p>\n\n

\u200bMorente advised the transacting public, including its accredited travel agencies and law offices, to familiarize themselves with the new schedule.<\/p>\n\n

\u200bHe also assured that \u201cdespite our shortened office hours, we remain steadfast in our commitment to deliver fast and efficient services to the public.\u201d<\/p>\n\n

\u200bMorente, however, said that the BI will continue to implement a \u201cno-noon\u00a0break\u201d policy for employees manning its frontline services.<\/p>\n\n

\u201cThis is to ensure the unhampered and enhanced delivery of services in our offices and smoothen the processing of documents,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n\n

The Civil Service Commission (CSC) has mandated all government offices to implement the no\u00a0noon\u00a0break policy which is also enunciated in the Anti-Red Tape Act. Eiriel Rain H. Dollete\/黑料社 trainee<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
