The year 2021 has been a blessed year for the Bureau of Jail Management and Penology.
Discounting the global health crisis which is now in its second year, by the grace of our Creator,
the Jail Bureau of 18,816 members was unfazed. We have collectively shown resiliency by
continuing to thrive amidst adversity. Our effective management of COVID-19 jail facilities is a
testament to this fact. With everyone’s hard work and dedication, we were able to survive and
are continuously surviving this pandemic. In fact, we have continued breaking boundaries,
sustained the medals of the previous years, and introduced innovations in response to the
demands of the present normal.

We are most proud that for the second year in a row in 2021, no BJMP personnel tested positive
for the use of illegal drugs, truly an achievement for a law enforcement agency which needs
the trust and confidence of the public. We will always be on our guard to sustain this feat and
shall even be working harder for well-policed ranks in 2022.

We also highlight the 378 PDL released in 2021 by virtue of the implementation of Supreme
Court Administrative Circular No. 38-2020 or the "Reduced Bail and Recognizance as Modes for
Releasing Indigent Persons Deprived of Liberty During this Period of Public Health Emergency,
Pending Resolution of their Cases." Also, following the Supreme Court’s directive to grant
release to PDL belonging to the vulnerable sector, we were able to send 5,153 more PDL back
to their families. This is almost triple the number of vulnerable PDL released in 2020. These and
other modes of release have set almost 58,000 PDL free this year. A hardworking paralegal
team is behind these life- changing achievements.

Another laurel for 2021 was that the BJMP Accounting Service is now included in the the elite
Hall of Fame Most Outstanding Accounting Offices, as declared by the Association of
Government Accountants of the Philippines (AGAP), Inc. We qualified for the Hall of Fame
category after having been chosen by the Commission on Audit as one of the Outstanding
JDIR ALLAN S IRAL, CESE Accounting Offices for three consecutive years: CY 2018, CY 2019 and CY 2020.

The year 2021 was one great challenge for the BJMP. No matter what the new year brings, the
BJMP is always prepared to take them on! The passion that brought us all working to better
PDL’s lives in the last year is the same that enflames us as we embrace 2022.

With such warmth and pride, we present to you the BJMP’s accomplishments in 2021.
 INTRODUCTION

The Bureau of Jail Management and Penology continuously projects excellency in

public service, guaranteeing humane safekeeping and development of Persons Deprived of
Liberty through its unwavering effort in framing holistic programs and policies, initiating
innovations carrying out quality jail services, and facing challenges with distinctive resilience
and willpower. The year 2021 manifests the solidity of the men and women of the Jail Bureau,
performing their duties and responsibilities at best. From the destructions caused by several
typhoons to the continuous outbreak of the COVID-19, the Jail Bureau stands tall, proudly
waving its mantra “Changing Lives, Building a Safer Nation.”

Furthermore, the BJMP’s “The 4G Management Strategy” exemplified by the Guard the
Gate, Guard the Badge, Guard the Purse, and Guard the Life guides the Jail Bureau amidst
the scourge of the pandemic. The BJMP never ceases to provide various programs for the well-
being of the PDL, carrying out innovations such as E-DALAW, Telemedicine for online medical
consultations, and Telepsychology for online counselling to deliver utmost service to the PDL.
In partnership with LGUs and other key stakeholders, the COVID-19 Vaccination Program of
the Jail Bureau, together with other initiatives such as vaccination of Influenza and
Pneumococcal vaccines, was successfully rolled out nationwide. The COVID-19 pandemic has
certainly tested the endurance of the BJMP; however, with the dedication of the men and
women of the Bureau in fulfilling their avowed duty to the people, it remains strong, facing
challenges as virtues of opportunities for greater development.
TOWARDS SAFE JAIL FACILITIES FOR
PDL AND PERSONNEL

GUARD THE GATE

 ON SAFETY AND SECURITY
FOR AN EFFECTIVE AND SYSTEMATIC JAIL
MANAGEMENT AND OPERATIONS
Notwithstanding the restrictions brought about by precautionary measures to
prevent the spread of COVID-19 inside jails, the Jail Bureau persistently managed
the jail setting in terms of decongestion. Compared to the previous year’s PDL
population, there is an increase of 8,671 PDL or 7.43%. The rise of committals is due
to the loosened restriction of COVID-19 protocols that suspended the commitment
of PDL in jails. Nevertheless, the congestion rate decreased from 403% (December
31, 2020) to 386% (December 31, 2021) or 17%, due to the occupancy of newly
constructed jails and the assistance of the ICRC in establishing the LIGTAS COVID
CENTERS as isolation facilities for PDL with COVID-19 symptoms.

 FOR SOUND, SECURE, AND STRONG JAIL INFRASTRUCTURE

To effectively suppress imminent incidents that would compromise jail security, the conduct of Security Survey in all jail
facilities is thoroughly held every first quarter of the year. In 2021, there is an increase in the number of conducted security
surveys as a result of the adjustments made in varying degrees of community quarantine imposed in different parts of the
country. Improvements in the reporting tools were made for immediate identification of priority recommendations to be
addressed by the management, and to measure the degree of compliance to such. The consolidated Security Inspection
Reports show that there is a 75% nationwide compliance rate. The highest of which is the compliance to the
recommendations in the area of Information and Communications Technology Security.

MANAGING RISKS AND THREATS
INTELLIGENCE GATHERING TO PREVENT JAIL INCIDENTS
Despite the challenges brought about by the pandemic, the Bureau’s Intelligence Units have been dedicated and all-out in
gathering information and making actionable intelligence out of it, emphasizing on the vitality of quality, timely, and
exhaustive gathering of information that may directly or indirectly affect the security of personnel, PDL, and the facility.
Thereupon, it resulted in the increase in the number of prevented incidents and disturbances in the respective areas of
responsibility.

 PREVENTING AND COUNTERING RADICALIZATION IN JAILS

BJMP National Task Group on the Localization of E.O. No. 70 Situational Awareness and
Knowledge Management (SAKM) Cluster
Pursuant to DILG MC No. 2019-125, the SAKM Cluster provides and disseminates timely and accurate intelligence information
and assessment on situations regarding the Communist Terrorist Group (CTG) and governance aligned with the whole-of-
nation approach in order to support the objective of ending the local communist armed conflict. The BJMP, through the SAKM
Cluster of its National Task Group on the Localization of E.O. No. 70 or ELCAC headed by the Directorate for Intelligence (DI),
complements the efforts of the DILG Task Teams on ELCAC by providing intelligence information regarding activities of
Persons Deprived of Liberty with Terrorism- Related Cases (PDL with TRC) belonging to the CTG inside jails.

10
BJMP AND PNP-SALAAM POLICE CENTER PARTNERSHIP
The BJMP successfully forged a partnership with the Philippine National Police-Salaam Police Center to render mutual aid and
support in combating radicalization leading to violent extremism and protecting individuals vulnerable thereto, such as the
members of the Muslim community in jails. Part of the partnership commitment is for the PNP to assist the BJMP Preventing
and Countering Violent Extremism Center in the formulation of its programs, projects, policies, and activities affecting Muslim
PDL to ensure that the same are in accordance with their culture and beliefs.

In cooperation with the newly-

established BJMP P/CVE Center, the
SAKM Cluster helps in the assessment
of existing welfare and development
programs of the Jail Bureau for the
CTGs. Likewise, the Cluster assists in
the planning and formulation of
appropriate strategies for the possible
disengagement of these PDL from
their violent ideologies by providing
strategic intelligence products. At the
onset of the pandemic, the Jail Bureau
made it a point that the SAKM Cluster
will continue its relentless efforts to
monitor CTGs in jails, and has kept the
DILG abreast of any development. At
present, there are five hundred one
(501) CTGs in jails nationwide that are
being closely monitored by the SAKM
Cluster daily.

Strong accord with other Law Enforcement Agencies and other government entities aids the smooth operation of the Jail Bureau
and increases the situational awareness of the Jail Officers in their area of operation. As of December 2021, 47 Escorting activities of
High Risk PDL were held successfully with the assistance from the local PNP or AFP Unit. 1,443 Intelligence Sharing and 184 Inter-
Agency Meetings were conducted with the presence of Intelligence Units from different government agencies. Fifty-four joint
greyhound operations were also conducted with the assistance of other agencies such as PDEA.

STRATEGIES
A huge percentage of PDL population are those with drug-related cases under

measure undertaken by the Bureau to provide early intervention and help
prevent accidents. The results generated will become basis on determining the
appropriate intervention for the PDL. As of December 31, 2021, a total of 74,518
PDL underwent drug testing and only 73 of whom were found positive.

PEACEBUILDING EFFORTS
In collaboration with the Bureau of Corrections (BUCOR), the BJMP
effectively leads the Cluster PDL with TRC and Violent Extremist
Offenders (VEOs) in jails to realize the required interventions reflected in
the National Action Plan on Preventing and Countering Violent
Extremism (NAP P/CVE). Empirical evidence shows how jails can
potentially serve as breeding grounds for radicalization and
recruitment. The PDL with TRC and VEOs Cluster, which is actively
headed by both the BJMP and BuCor, with its members: DILG, NSC,
NICA, PNP, AFP, ATC-PMC, CHED, DAR, DA, DOH, DOJ, DOLE, DSWD,
DTI, NAPC, NCMF, NHA, OCA, PAO, PDEA, Philhealth, Supreme Court,
PPA and TESDA. They ensure that interventions by concerned
stakeholders are realized to address the push and pull factors of
radicalization that lead to violent extremism in jails.

With the Jail Bureau’s commitment to consistently undertake

monitoring, counseling, and educating PDL who were suspected to be
affiliated with the Communist Terrorist Group (CTG), the BJMP
Peacebuilding and Development Policy was established and became
effective on October 23, 2021. The policy provides a framework that
supports prevention on radicalization leading to violent extremism and
insurgency inside jails through a synergy of approach among BJMP
units and the convergence with civil society organizations, religious
sector, and other key stakeholders. Intelligence efforts such as constant
monitoring of PDL who are suspected members of CTG committed in
the BJMP were carried out in provision for the Situational Awareness
and Knowledge Management Cluster, Under the Executive Order No.
70, the Jail Bureau, through its Community Relations Service Office
and regional counterparts, has conducted a total of 2, 834 public
information campaigns nationwide which were centered on ensuring
the people's confidence to the government. On the other hand, 301
peace building initiatives, such as coordination with other government
agencies, donation drive, gift-giving, and feeding programs, were
successfully conducted by the Bureau’s Strategic Communication
Cluster.

AIMING AT LESSER JAIL INCIDENTS
In the dawn of COVID-19 contagion, providing security and order continuously prevail as fundamental in jail facilities. As of
December 2021, the Bureau recorded thirty-two (32) jail incidents and disturbances nationwide which reflect 9% reduction of jail
disturbances compared to the same period in 2020 which recorded thirty-five (35) jail incidents. The Bureau has been consistent
in reminding all jails to take on initiatives and set in best practices through policies, directives, and issuances to prevent conflicts
between and among PDL in jail facilities.

PURSUING MORE DRUG-FREE AND DRUG-CLEARED JAILS
The Bureau attained a total of 303 Drug-Free and Drug-Cleared jail facilities under the establishment of the Regional
Oversight Committee in Declaring Drug-free and Drug-cleared BJMP jails. As of December 2021, the figure represents
71.63% or 303 out of 423 occupied jails nationwide. One of the bases among the parameters in certifying drug-free and drug-
cleared jails is the negative seizure of illegal drugs and drug paraphernalia during drug-clearing operations conducted by
both the PDEA and the BJMP in different regions. The decline in the number of Drug-Free/Drug-Cleared certifications
nationwide is due to the imposition of absolute lockdown in all jail facilities nationwide since March 17, 2020, wherein jail
activities and jail access have been strictly regulated due to the threat of COVID-19 contagion.

The delivery of excellent service of the Jail Bureau to the public is highly attributed to the capability of its manpower. During this
time of pandemic, panel interview and oath-taking ceremonies were conducted virtually in order not to hamper the set
timeline for the recruitment process. However, other processes require all applicants to be physically present.

For the year 2021, a total of two thousand (2,000) Jail Officer 1 under the regular quota, two-hundred twenty (220) under the

Guaranteeing a secure and adequate manning of 474 jails nationwide, the Jail Bureau mandates an equitable distribution of
personnel to perform the three core functions of custodial, escorting, and administrative roles critical in jail management. The
ideal personnel strength of 46,984 is only 40.05% filled-up with the current personnel strength of 18,816 for the period. Hence,
the ideal ratio of personnel to PDL, which is 1:3, is currently implemented at a 1:7 ratio compared to the 1:10 ratio last year due to
the 13.12% increase in the actual strength of the Jail Bureau. The adequacy in our personnel strength is important in the
maximized regulation and operationalization of jail facilities with the goal of minimizing occurrence of jail incidents nationwide.

During this pandemic, the Bureau’s mental health practitioners conducted the Neuro-psychiatric examination of personnel for
promotion through tele-assessment. In lieu of written psychological examination, psychologists and psychometricians assess
and evaluate the personnel through online structured interview, observation and history taking. While the psychiatrists
conduct their assessment through interview virtually. The convenience of not travelling from a far-flung area is the main
advantage of this process. Likewise, those personnel for promotion who are in lockdown status can be easily reached through
tele-assessment. On the other hand, though the written psychological examination of JO1 applicants cannot be negotiated,
the pre-pandemic face-to-face interview was substituted by an online interview. Hence, COVID-19 precautions are
continuously sustained as less contact and exposure on the part of both the applicant and the interviewer are observed.

 ENHANCING PDL LITERACY
With the desire of the Jail Bureau to maintain the personal growth of each PDL, it strengthened the conceptualized program
implementation of “Tagapangalaga ko, Guro ko” and “Kapwa ko, Guro ko” in different jails under our care. Through these
programs, PDL are given the opportunity to continue their education by bringing the school in jails with the help of DepEd
mentors and jail officers who are licensed teachers or accredited Instructional Managers (IMs) as well as co-PDL who have
educational background or degree who willingly gave their time and skill to the PDL-learners. The Accreditation and
Equivalency (A&E) Test certifies the competencies of the ALS students as comparable graduates of the formal school system.
Passers will receive a certificate/diploma, bearing the seal of the DepEd and Secretary's signature.
The importance of education for our PDL is not overlooked by the Jail Bureau. As of December 2021, the passing percentage of
ALS PDL-learners in 2020-2021 is 69% in secondary education and 65% in elementary education or a combined rating of 69%
from both elementary and secondary.

 LEGISLATIVE PRIORITIES
To expedite the passage of Jail Bureau’s legislative priorities,
the Legislative Liaison Office sees to forge more partners in
the Congress and even in the local legislative units to
champion priority legal measures that will benefit the lives of
the PDL and the delivery of services by the organization in
terms of public safety. The passage of the Republic Act No.
11549 or “An Act Lowering the Minimum Height
Requirement for Applicants of the Philippine National Police
(PNP), Bureau of Fire Protection (BFP), Bureau of Jail
Management and Penology (BJMP), and Bureau of
Corrections (BuCor), Amending Republic Act No. 6975, As
Amended, Republic Act No. 9263, and Republic Act No.
10575 last July 27, 2021, is a manifestation of the prolific
partnership between the Bureau and champion legislators
which benefited five hundred ten (510) talented young
individuals to serve the Jail Bureau on its first year of
implementation.

SENATE BIL NO. 1332 TRANSFERRING CONTROL AND SUPERVISION OF THE

PROVINCIAL AND SUB PROVINCIAL JAILS TO THE BJMP
The BJMP supports the advancement and passage of Senate Bill No. 1332 or “The Transfer of Control and Supervision of the
Provincial and Sub-Provincial Jails to the BJMP” as a foothold resolve to the problem of fragmented setup of correctional
system in the country. The measure seeks to transfer the control and supervision of Provincial and Sub-provincial jails under
the competent administration and management of the BJMP, therefore, ensuring a uniform national standard of jail
management. Thus, this bill is a huge leap towards restructuring the current corrections set-up which will cover eighty-four
(84) provincial and sub-provincial jails and an increase of 26,734 PDL to the BJMP. Apparently, both the House of the
Representative and the Senate agreed to create a Technical Working Group to further discuss the salient features of the bill.

58
SENATE BILL NO. 1101 UPGRADING THE RANK CLASSIFICATION STRUCTURE OF THE UNIFORMED
MEMBERS OF THE BFP AND BJMP
After series of committee meetings, Senate Bill No. 1833 or “Upgrading the Rank Classification Structure of the Uniformed
Members of the BFP and BJMP” was filed. The bill which was authored by Senator Ronald M. Dela Rosa and co-authored by
Senators Panfilo M. Lacson, Sr., Emmanuel Joel Villanueva, Ramon Bong Revilla, Jr., Francis N. Tolentino, Juan Edgardo M.
Angara, Christopher Lawrence T. Go, Juan Miguel F. Zubiri, and Emmanuel D. Pacquiao, aimed at rectifying the inequality in the
rank classification among the line bureaus of the DILG, therefore, establishing standard rank nomenclatures among uniformed
personnel. As of December 2021, the bill is pending on second reading. Under this, the current rank classification and the
corresponding rate of the uniformed personnel shall be updated and adjusted as follows:

Current Rank Classification Current Salary Grade New Rank Classification New Salary Grade

Fire/Jail Director 28 Fire/Jail General 30

 HIGHLIGHTS
SOCIAL MEDIA RESPONSIVENESS
The Jail Bureau adapted the modern approach using internet and
technology as guided by existing public service ethics. The BJMP
Official Facebook Page has a number of 123,205 followers on the
BJMP Facebook page or an increase of 40% from last year. About
400 social media contents promoting the Bureau's programs and
activities were disseminated. Digital graphic contents promoting
the Jail Bureau’s activities more aligned with relevant and current
social interests, events and conditions are being posted on the
Bureau’s official Facebook account handled by CRS officers.

Anchored on the theme “Celebrating Decade of Stronger

Community Ties,” the 10th Community Relations Service Month
was firmed up with community centered activities and geared
toward promoting the welfare of every jail personnel and Person
Deprived of Liberty (PDL). However, due to the COVID-19 situation,
and also to emphasize health safety measures the pandemic, most
of the scheduled activities were conducted online. Nevertheless,
based on the feedback and recommendations of CRSS Chiefs and
staff from different regions, the activities conducted such as the
Virtual Learning Series, BJMP Communication Summit for
Executives, Online Singing Competition, Spoken Poetry,
Documentary Festival, and Basic Sign Language Webinar were
relevant and adaptive to the current situation brought about by
the pandemic, making the 10th Community Relations Service
Month truly a success.

60
BJMP CONNECT
In response to our commitment to public service and
information, the Jail Bureau through the Community Relations
Service Office (CRSO) launched the BJMP CONNECT, a weekly
virtual interactive program to support the information
dissemination and awareness campaigns of the Agency. Unlike
its parent program the BJMP's BEST, this latest program of the
Bureau will utilize field information with the CRSS and CRSU
Officers as co-host. For the year 2021, a total of 39 episodes of
BJMP Connect were aired on the BJMP Official Facebook
Page, including Special Episodes such as “Dear BJMP” and the
commemoration of the 121st Philippine Civil Service Commission
Anniversary.

ON GENDER AND DEVELOPMENT

The Jail Bureau remains a staunch supporter of the advocacies in advancing
the Gender and Development (GAD) Mainstreaming. And with the
unwavering support of the Philippine Commission on Women (PCW), the
Bureau has exercised a major global strategy in order to manage gender
equality in all aspects of its development and process to achieve the vision of a
gender-responsive society.

Aside from participating in the Women’s month in March 2021 and the 18-Day
Campaign to End Violence against Women (VAW), Jail Bureau personnel were
provided with continuous activities such as but not limited to Gender-
Sensitivity trainings for personnel, GAD trainings for Wardens, reinforcement
of policy on pregnant personnel, recognition of female jail personnel awardees
and capacity-building activities and organization of MOVE (Men Opposed to
VAW Everywhere) to assure that both PDL and BJMP personnel will be
benefited from the government’s endeavor of gender equality.

61
 BJMP COVID-19 RESPONSE
The ongoing COVID-19 Pandemic has certainly tested the endurance of the Jail Bureau’s health workers for the past two years.
Every facet of the Bureau’s operation has been challenged and novel ideas have been institutionalized to mitigate the effects of the
pandemic.

Through enhanced partnerships with different stakeholders such as the Local Government Units, the Department of Health and
NGOs like the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), the Jail Bureau is able to manage the COVID-19 cases of PDL and
personnel effectively; thus, keeping the death toll at 1.08% and 0.55%, respectively. Below deflects the national case fatality rate of
1.47%.

(CHD) and Local Government Unit (LGU) to employ
efficient vaccination rollout nationwide and mobilize its
human resources for health to serve its clientele, the PDL
and its personnel.

The BJMP National Headquarters has set up its own

vaccination site to inoculate the NHQ, NCR personnel and
other nearby regions (RIII, CALABARZON and MIMAROPA)
while the remaining BJMP Regional Offices are working
closely with their respective CHDs and LGUs to vaccinate
their personnel. Meanwhile, the jails had carried out their
vaccination programs in partnership with their respective
LGUs and other key stakeholders.

Other initiatives were made to help the key stakeholders in

their vaccination program such as the activation of the
Vaccination Team and Composite Team to augment the
human resource of specific LGUs where the jail is located
and the provision of additional modified BTV with barriers
for vaccinees’ transportation from identified pick up points
to designated vaccination sites.

 With the aim of ramping up COVID-19 vaccination nationwide, the Department of Health (DOH), called on Filipinos to live out
the spirit of bayanihan and participate in the “Bayanihan Bakunahan: Ligtas. Lakas. Buong Pinas.” campaign. The National
Vaccination Days were held in two rounds, on November 29, 30, and December 1, 2021 and December 20, 21,
and 22, 2021, respectively.

The Jail Bureau responded to this call by utilizing the National Headquarters as DOH-approved vaccination site. A total of 473
jabs were administered at the NHQ, 32 (6.7%) of which were from the general public. The BJMP Regional Offices also deployed
540 personnel on different capacities to assist the Local Government Units during the said NVDs. The National Vaccination
Days were hailed as a success with a total of 8.01 million doses on the first round and 7.5 million on the second round,
respectively. This is despite the deferment of the NVD round 2 in several regions due to Severe Tropical Storm "Odette".

 “KANLUNGAN SA PIITAN” PROJECT
The BJMP, in collaboration with the Dangerous Drugs
Board (DDB) of the Philippines, recently launched its
new program called “Kanlungan sa Piitan.” This is a jail-
based/facility-based reformatory drug rehabilitation
program that will be instituted in the three major
islands of the country: Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao,
focusing on the drug rehabilitation process exclusively
for PDL with drug-related cases who availed of plea
bargaining.

On March 2021, the construction of the first

Rehabilitation Facility under this program was
completed. And this is situated in Malaybalay City Jail,
Province of Bukidnon, located within the island of
Mindanao. This rehabilitation facility can accommodate
sixty (60) PDL. While the construction of another
rehabilitation facility at Argao District Jail in the Province
of Cebu (Visayas Region) is already at 80% work
accomplishment as of November 15, 2021. On the other
hand, the BJMP, through the Directorate for Logistics
had already proposed a new jail facility to the DDB as
the site for the construction of the third rehabilitation
facility in the Luzon area.

ORGANIZATIONAL DEVELOPMENT
To progress organizational effectiveness, the Jail Bureau, with its continuing strive addressing the growing concerns of jail
management and penology, established four new offices:

 The Preventing and Countering Violent Extremism (P/CVE) Center, headed by JSSUPT RUFINO M SANTIAGO JR, was
launched on February 11, 2021 as a support unit that would integrate all data, coordinate initiatives and programs, and
formulate a system that would cover the proper management, handling, and interventions for PDL with terrorism-related
cases (TRC) consistent with the objectives of the NAP P/CVE and E.O. No. 70 in relation to the mandate of the Anti-Terrorism
Law. The P/CVE connects, coordinates, and complements the functions and responsibilities of concerned BJMP units insofar
as P/CVE efforts are concerned pressing the need and legal duty to contribute in the Anti- Terrorism Efforts of the
Government;

 The Retirement and Separation Benefits Administration Service Office (RSBASO), headed by JSUPT JHON D MONTERO,
was created pursuant to Republic Act NO. 10154 or An Act Requiring All Concerned Government Agencies to ensure the Early
Release of the Retirement Pay, Pensions, Gratuities, and Other Benefits of Retiring Government Employees. The RBASO
handles the administration of retirement, separation, and other benefits of BJMP personnel, as well as plan programs
promoting the welfare of retirees and pensioners. The office shall also monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of its programs
to aid the formulation of policies, improving the retirement and separation system of the Jail Bureau;

 The Internal Audit Unit (IAU), headed by Ms. Marilou C. Sanchez, was established pursuant to section 1, Book V of the
Administrative code of 1987 and section 10 (d), 13, and 69 of implementing Rules and Regulations of Republic Act No. 6975.
The IAU helps the Jail Bureau ensure its compliance with any and all of its policies and guidelines through conducting
management and operations audit to the Bureau’s functions, programs, projects, and activities, improving the control
environment of the Jail Bureau and its efficiency and operating effectiveness; and

 The Center for Jail Excellence and Strategic Management (CJESM) headed by JSUPT RANDEL H LATOZA, was established
pursuant to Paragraph 3, Section 62 and 63 of the Implementing Rules and Regulations of Republic Act No. 6975. The CJESM
serves as the central facility of the Jail Bureau in coordinating and integrating all strategy management and instilling in the
organization a culture of strategic focus.

The establishment of these offices will abet the Jail Bureau in its pursuit to be innovative on dealing with its organizational
structure, and responsive on putting forward well-planned programs in motion leading to the realization of its mantra
“Changing Lives, Building a Safer Nation.”
