:
1. The annual clothing and uniform allowance in the amount of Six Thousand Pesos (6,000) or to whichever amount that shall be appropriated in the succeeding budget years for this purpose, shall be released to all eligible personnel NOT EARLIER than the first working day of April of the current year, subject to existing accounting and auditing rules and regulations, and upon the release of the Notice of Cash Allocation from DBM.
2. In consideration with the current crisis brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic, and the continuing implementation of the blended learning delivery and alternative working arrangements in the Department, SY 2021-2022 shall be considered a “transition period” to allow ample time for employees to prepare and purchase new set of prescribed uniforms. To facilitate the transition period, employees can still wear their old uniforms this coming SY 2021-2022. But starting SY 2022-2023, all teaching and non-teaching personnel shall wear the prescribed new set of uniforms.
