The Department of Education (DepEd) has begun processing the salary increase differentials for public school teachers and non-teaching personnel for Fiscal Year 2024, following the guidelines set forth in Executive Order 64 issued by President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.
Education Secretary Sonny Angara announced on Monday that the DepEd has received approval from the Department of Budget and Management (DBM) to proceed with the distribution of approximately Php 26.9 billion in salary differentials for eligible employees.
“As previously stated, both the President and the DBM have confirmed that funds will be released. In fact, they have instructed DepEd to use any available funds to advance the payment of this Php 26.9 billion salary differential for Fiscal Year 2024, covering DepEd’s plantilla positions,” Secretary Angara explained during the House committee’s deliberation on DepEd’s proposed FY 2025 budget.
Undersecretary for Finance Annalyn Sevilla confirmed that public school teachers and non-teaching staff can expect to receive their salary differentials for the period of January to August 2024 starting in September 2024. “The September payroll is authorized to include these payments,” Usec. Sevilla stated.
Additionally, Usec. Sevilla noted that, as of August 31, DepEd Regions 1 (Ilocos Region), 3 (Central Luzon), and MIMAROPA have successfully secured the release of their Notice of Official Salary Adjustment (NOSA) and are already processing the payment of salary differentials to their employees.
“Upon receiving the NOSA, the allotments—coordinated with the DBM—allow us to use our savings temporarily, with DBM committing to replenish these funds,” Sevilla explained.
Meanwhile, the Cordillera Administrative Region (CAR), Region 7 (Central Visayas), Region 10 (Northern Mindanao), and Region 11 (Davao Region) have begun partial releases of their NOSA.
