LINGAYEN, Pangasinan – Four provincial government employees, two of them holding managerial positions, were charged for grave misconduct, abuse of authority, dishonesty, gross neglect of duty and conduct prejudicial to the best interest of the service.
Provincial
legal officer Geraldine Baniqued said Wednesday the employees, whose identities
were withheld, were given 10 days to submit their verified answer to charges
filed against them.
Baniqued
said the provincial government under Gov. Amado Espino Jr. is resolved to
strengthen the bureaucracy by instilling professionalism and excellence through
disciplinary action against erring employees.
A
total of 16 cases were filed due to dishonesty, gross misconduct, neglect of
duty, acts unbecoming of a public official, insubordination and falsification
of documents in 2009.
Seven
cases were dismissed while the respondents in the remaining nine cases were
either suspended without pay or disqualified for promotion.
Eighteen
cases were filed in 2010, of which nine cases were meted with suspension from
work without pay and reprimand.
Seven
cases were filed last year, including those against provincial guards and an
assistant provincial warden.
