Mayor Carmelo “Pogi” Lazatin Jr. on April 24, 2023, awarded certificates of loyalty, pins and cash incentives to some 182 employees for their decades-long service to the Angeleños.
Mayor Lazatin led the awarding ceremony, citing the utmost dedication and commitment the awardees demonstrated through their years of public service.
“Kayo ang dahilan ng maayos at tapat na paghahatid natin ng serbisyo sa ating mga kababayan, mula noon hanggang ngayon,” Lazatin said, adding “May your hard work serve as encouragement to your fellow employees in serving the Angeleños with commitment.”
A P10,000 cash incentive was granted to those who have been in the service for 10 years, and P5,000 for every succeeding five years of tenure and service rendered by the awardees.
Also present during the awarding ceremony are Pampanga 1st District Rep. Carmelo “Jon” Lazatin II, Vice Mayor Vicky Vega-Cabigting, City Councilors Crisanto Cortez and Danilo Lacson, Chief Adviser IC Calaguas, and City Human Resource and Management Office (CHRMO) head, Rowena Yambao.
This initiative, which aims to recognize the significant contributions of government employees and boost their morale in serving better, is part of the Awards and Incentives for Service Excellence program implemented by the City Human Resource and Management Office, pursuant to Memorandum Circular No. 06, s. 2002 of Civil Service Commission (CSC) also known as Revised Policies on the Grant of Loyalty Award.
It can be recalled that it was during Mayor Carmelo “Tarzan” Lazatin’s stint that the City Hall employees first received their loyalty bonus.
