THE implementation of salary increases is now in progress across government agencies as the Department of Budget and Management (DBM) has started releasing the allocated funds for the purpose.
As of 1p.m. on September 10, 2024, a total of P31.93 billion has been released to 257 departments/agencies while 58 more are now being processed.
“We are doing everything we can so that we can release the budget to all agencies as soon as possible,” DBM Secretary Amenah F. Pangandaman said.
“Ito po ‘yung pinakahihintay ng ating mga kasamahan sa gobyerno. Of course, we also urge the heads of the departments and agencies to distribute immediately the salary differential since ‘yung increase po is retroactive starting January of this year,” she added.
Meanwhile, in the spirit of transparency, accountability, and good governance, Pangandaman ordered the creation of the Salary Standardization Law VI (SSL VI) dashboard. This tool provides real-time data on budget releases for easier monitoring and effective oversight.
The salary increase dashboard is now up and running on the DBM’s official website.
