1.0 Background
Agencies have used this provision as basis for direc{y hiring individual workers on
contract of service or job order to perform specific jobs or to supplement their cunent
manpower.
Civil Service Commission (CSC) Memorandum Circular (MC) No. 40, s. 1998,
prescribed the policies and guidelines regarding contracts of service (COS) and job
orders (JOs) entered into by all govemment agencies on both individual and
institutional basis. Said CSC policy clarified that workers under contract of service or
job order are not covered by Civil Service law, rules, and regulations; and that
$l
J services rendered thereunder are not considered as govemment service.
\ However, the proliferation of individual Job Order and Contract of Service workers in
the government and their invohement even in the performance of regular agency
functions have been observed.
This situation gave rise to the following issues: a) lack of social protection for the
workerc and inequality in benefits, and b) obscure accountability of JO/COS workers
due to lack of employee-employer relationship with the hiring agency.
ln view of the foregoing, there is a need to clariff the guidelines on availing of the
services of COS and Job Order workers.
Government agencies are authorized to enter into service contracts with other
government agencies, private finns, non-government agencies or individuals for
