Request for Appointment or Re-Appointment of Casual Employees

September 23, 1977 REVENUE MEMORANDUM ORDER NO. 45-77 SUBJECT : Request for Appointment or Re-Appointment of Casual Employees TO : All Revenue Service Chiefs All Division Chiefs All Revenue Regional Directors All Branch Chiefs All Revenue District Officers And all others concerned It has been observed that proposed appointments or reappointments of casual employees reach the Office of the Commissioner already too close to their effectivity dates, thus leaving him little or no time at all for the proper screening of the said appointment papers. Needless to say, this practice leads either to hasty decision or delayed action on said papers and delayed payment of salaries, to the detriment of the service and of the appointees concerned. Requests for appointment or re-appointment of casuals should, therefore, be made early enough so that the papers will reach the Office of the Commissioner at least ten (10) days before the effectivity dates thereof. This will give the Office of the Commissioner sufficient time to screen the proposals and determine the need for the services of the proposed casuals before they commence working. This will also assure approval or disapproval of the appointments before their effective dates, and thus avoid delay in the payment of the wages of those whose appointments or re-appointments are approved. cdta Henceforth, all requests for appointment or re-appointment of casuals should include the following particulars: namely, number of employees authorized under the staffing pattern, number of regular employees actually assigned, number of casuals presently authorized, number of casuals being requested, whether request is for appointment or re-appointment, reason for the request for casuals, and the particular work to be performed by the casuals being proposed. In no case should casuals be allowed to work before notification of the approval of their appointment or re-appointment, without prior clearance from this Office. Strict compliance herewith is desired. cd EFREN I. PLANA Acting Commissioner of Internal Revenue TAN P4519-F2525-A-8
