Employees laud Leonardia for early release of benefits
BACOLOD CITY -- The city government employees really admire the administration of Mayor Evelio Leonardia for a very good scheme in dealing with employees' benefits.
Ardis Jaculina, chief of Permits and Licensing Division, in an interview with The News Today said they recognized one good point of the mayor by way of scheduling the release of benefits from January to June where everyone is in need of money for their students, either for the school opening or closing.
“Yes it has been a practice of Mayor Bing which we considered as a great help for us parents,” Jaculina added.
Monday when Acting Mayor Jude Thaddeus Sayson announced the approval of the release of the mid-year bonus of regular and plantilla casual employees amounting to about P17.5 million.
“Mayor Evelio Leonardia has granted the release of the mid-year bonus through acting City Legal Officer and Secretary to the Mayor Vicente Petierre III,” Sayson added.
Jaculina on the other hand said it’s good for them that the city facilitated the early release unlike what they experienced before the previous administrations where they availed it on September.
“It was a good move or action of the city which gained positive feedbacks to all employees like me,” she added.
