Original Provisions Under the 1981 CSC Guidelines

Section 11 of the 1981 Civil Service Commission (CSC) Guidelines stated:
- BNS eligibility is classified as a first-level eligibility.
- This eligibility may be considered for appointment to positions not requiring written examinations.
- Appointment consideration requires experience comparable to that acquired as a BNS.
- Other requirements of the position must also be met.

Need for Amendment Due to Changing Qualification Standards

Recent changes in government qualification standards have eliminated positions in the career service where BNS eligibility was deemed appropriate.
This development necessitated rationalizing the grant of BNS eligibility to align with current standards.

Amended Guidelines on the Grant of BNS Eligibility

CSC Resolution No. 002625 dated November 22, 2000 amended Section 11 of the CSC Guidelines as follows:
- BNS eligibility remains a first-level eligibility.
- It may be considered for appointment to positions which do not require written examinations.
- The appointee must meet the education, training, experience, and other requirements of the position.

Effectivity and Authority

The amendment was adopted on January 26, 2001.
Signed by Corazon Alma G. De Leon, Chairman of the Civil Service Commission.

This amendment rationalizes the scope of BNS eligibility to ensure appointments are based on a comprehensive evaluation of qualifications beyond experience alone, reflecting current government standards and practices.
