The House of Representatives approved HB 4852, which would mandate the creation of a Human Resource Management Office in all local government units. This would enable LGUs to take charge of recruitment, career development, rewards/incentives, performance management, discipline, and employee relations. The measure aims to promote efficient public service through the hiring of qualified employees screened by the HR office. It was passed on second reading and would make the HR officer position mandatory for provincial, city, and municipal governments, but optional for fourth to sixth class municipalities. The Civil Service Commission would appoint the HR officer from a list of at least three eligible candidates recommended by the local chief executive.
