HOW TO COUNT THE LEVEL OF DEGREE OF CONSANGUINITY/AFFINITY?

[ad_1]

Under Sec. 9, Rule XIII (Prohibitions), Revised Omnibus Rules on Appointments and Other Personnel Actions (CSC MC No. 40, s. 1998), the following are the rules on Nepotism:

Sec. 9. No appointment in the national, provincial, city or municipal governments or any branch or instrumentality thereof, including government owned or controlled corporations with original charters shall be made in favor of a relative of the appointing or recommending authority, or of the chief of the bureau or office or of the person exercising immediate supervision over the appointee.

Unless otherwise provided by law, the word “relative” and the members of the family referred to are those related within the third degree either of consanguinity or of affinity.

In the local government career service, the prohibition extends to the relatives of the appointing or recommending authority, within the fourth civil degree of consanguinity or affinity.

The following are exempted from the operation of the rules on nepotism:

a. persons employed in a confidential capacity
b. teachers
c. physicians
d. members of the Armed Forces of the Philippines

The nepotism rule covers all kinds of appointments whether original, promotional, transfer and reemployment regardless of status including casuals and contractuals except consultants.

  1. Nepotistic appointments:

    Are you related to the:

    H – Head of Agency
    A – Appointing Authority
    R – Recommending Authority
    I – Immediate Supervisor?

  2. Hi. The chart is wrong (the degrees of affinity).

    Spouses are counted as one.

    1st degree of affinity: parents-in-law
    Son/daughter-in-law

    2nd degree of affinity:
    Brother/sister-in-law

    Please have it corrected. Thank you.

  3. Sana po baguhin na ang exemptions kasi na aabuse lang at nagiging kamag anak incorporated ang nangyayari

  4. Who will determine f the personnel in the ofis f the appointee is related to the appointing authority? Or recomending authority? Maraming cases na ganyan bakit walang nangyayari? What is mgt doing? Wala!!!shit!!!
