Title
PNP Salary Grades Specified in EO No. 107
Law
Executive Order No. 107
Decision Date
Jun 10, 1999
President Joseph Ejercito Estrada issues Executive Order No. 107, establishing the salary grades for officers and enlisted personnel of the Philippine National Police (PNP) based on Republic Act No. 8551, aligning their salaries with those of public school teachers.

Legal basis, referenced statutes, and policy intent

  • Executive Order No. 107 bases its salary-grade setting on Section 36 of Republic Act No. 8551, which expands the salary-grade rule for uniformed members of the PNP by requiring alignment with the salary grade level of public school teachers.
  • Executive Order No. 107 recognizes that under Sections 28 and 36 of Republic Act No. 6975 (the Department of the Interior and Local Government Act of 1990), PNP rank classification exists and PNP members are treated as employees of the National Government drawing their salaries therefrom.
  • Executive Order No. 107 ties prior salary-schedule implementation to Executive Order No. 389 dated December 28, 1996, which finalized salary increases effective November 1, 1997 and modified the former 35-Grade Salary Schedule to a 33-Grade schedule consistent with Republic Act No. 6758 (the Compensation and Position Classification Act of 1989).
  • Executive Order No. 107 declares the need to prescribe salary grades for all PNP uniformed men in light of the salary-grade alignment mandated by Republic Act No. 8551.
