On the other hand, Dr. Baltazar presented to the attendees the BGH policy on rewards and sanctions which is applicable both for regular and job order employees wherein she emphasized the process of selecting the employee of the month and employee of the year including the rewards that they will receive. On the other hand, Dr. Baltazar mentioned the different sanctions that will be imposed to each employee who will violate the rules and regulations of the hospital. Likewise, the work instruction on issuing Corrective and Preventive Action Report (CPAR) with major non-conformity and percentage distribution of deduction to offenders were also covered during the said discussion. Lastly, the new BGH scorecard for offenses with corresponding sanctions was also presented depending on which department/section they belong.
It was followed by an Open Forum wherein several concerns of employees were raised and cleared. The said scorecard was approved by the body with minor corrections and modifications. Furthermore, Mr. Maurillo Jaraba, Nursing Attendant II, was elected as Level I representative for the Personnel Selection Board over Ms. Eden Laggui, Nursing Attendant II.
