Amendment to Sec. 5 of Act No. 2589
Act No. 3233, approved on November 27, 1925, amends Section 5 of Act No. 2589 concerning retirement gratuities for Philippine government officers and employees. The amendment stipulates that individuals who retire under this law cannot be reappointed or reemployed by the government unless they refund the full amount of their retirement gratuity. Furthermore, if reappointed, their salary must not exceed what they earned at retirement for a minimum of three years. The calculation for any future gratuity will consider the total years of service from the original appointment, rather than from the reappointment date.
