[ CSC RESOLUTION NO. 91-769, July 02, 1991 ]

POLICY ON EFFECTIVITY OF SEPARATION FROM THE GOVERNMENT SERVICE OF COMPULSORY RETIRED EMPLOYEES



WHEREAS, it has been observed that there has been confusion regarding the effectivity of separation from the government service of government officials and employees, who compulsorily retire under Section 11 (b) of P.D. 1146, otherwise known as œThe Revised Government Service Insurance Act of 1977 ;

WHEREAS, pertinent provision of Section 11 (b) of P.D. 1146 provides that:

œUnless the service is extended by appropriate authority, retirement shall be compulsory for an employee at sixty five (65) years of age x x x. 


WHEREAS, a day is composed of 24 hours and hence, the effectivity of compulsory retirement under P.D. 1146 may be at any time during the 65th birthday of a concerned government employee;

WHEREAS, to avoid further confusion regarding the effectivity of separation of compulsorily retired employees, there is a need to fix the same;

NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, as it hereby resolved that a government official or employee covered by the aforementioned provision of law is deemed separated from the government service at the close of office hours on his sixty fifth (65th) birthday.

RESOLVED FURTHER, that unless the service of a compulsorily retired official or employee is extended by the proper authority, a retiree shall no longer be allowed to render service and receive the salary appurtenant thereto.
