The Bureau of Customs (BOC) said it is pushing for the” expeditious” processing of all prerequisites related to the Bureau of Customs' (BOC) application for rewards for the agency’s 2018 revenue collection performance under Republic Act No. 9335 (Attrition Act of 2005).
This, after the Revenue Performance Evaluation Board (RPEB) resolved on November 22 to approve the allocation and distribution of rewards and incentives to eligible BOC officials and employees.
Enacted in 2005, the Attrition Act aims to optimize the collection capabilities of the country's leading revenue-generating agencies.
It encourages officials and employees of both the BIR and BOC to surpass their respective assigned revenue targets through a rewards and incentives system, while similarly imposing sanctions to those who shall fall short of their respective collection targets.
According to BOC Commissioner Bienvenido Rubio, the implementation of the Attrition Act reflects a genuine recognition of the hard work and dedication of public servants and concomitantly cultivates a culture of motivation among its employees.
This motivation, in turn, contributes to the consistent realization of the agency's mandates: revenue collection, trade facilitation, and border protection.
“Our commitment of recognizing and rewarding the dedication of our employees is a key element in fostering a culture of excellence within the Bureau. Through incentives enshrined under the Attrition Act, we aim to motivate our team to consistently achieve and surpass their respective targets that ultimately redound to the benefit not only of our organization but as well as the entire country as a whole,” Rubio said.
