The Administration decided that the selection of POEA Top Performers and Awardees of Excellence shall be done every two years considering that POEA concerned units need enough time to be able to thoroughly evaluate the performance of all licensed agencies.

While the review and amendment of existing rules and policies on agency performance evaluation is on-going, the package of incentives afforded to 1998 Top Performer Awardees pursuant to Memorandum Circular No. 07, series of 1998, is hereby extended until the next awardees had been chosen. POEA Awardees of Excellence and qualified candidates and former recipients of the Award of Excellence shall continuously enjoy their package of incentives unless the same is suspended or repealed by the Administration.

This shall take effect immediately.
