  • Position Classification and Compensation Scheme in Local Government Units
    Chapter 9 Position Classification and Compensation Scheme in Local Government Units 9.1 Historical Background 9.1.1 Before Presidential Decree (PD) No. 1136 Local governments are political units composed of provinces, cities, municipalities and barangays. They have long been existing with their own legislative bodies which are endowed with specific powers as defined in the Revised Administrative Code and individual local government unit (LGU) charters. These local legislative bodies were then called provincial boards in the case of provinces, city councils in cities and municipal councils in municipalities. These local legislative bodies were vested with the power to determine the number of employees that each office should have and to fix their salary rates as agreed upon by the majority. In exercising such power, however, there were no specific guidelines nor definite standards used in the creation of positions and the fixing of salaries. Position titles were not descriptive nor reflective of the duties and responsibilities of the positions and salaries were fixed arbitrarily. For local officials, however, laws such as Republic Act (RA) No. 268 as amended, and RA No. 4477 were passed by Congress fixing the salaries of municipal, provincial and city officials. These salary laws created a wide gap between the salaries of rank-and-file employees and the officials. 9.1.2 PD No. 1136 Cognizant of the need for a more effective local government personnel administration, PD No. 1136, “The Local Government Personnel Administration and Compensation Plans Decree of 1977,” was promulgated on May 5, 1977. Its salient features are as follows: 9.1.2.1 The creation of the Joint Commission on Local Government Personnel Administration (JCLGPA) to formulate policies on local government personnel administration, position classification and pay administration; and to implement the provisions of PD No.
