    NEPOTISM

    NEPOTISM
    Is the favoritism granted to relatives or friends regardless of merit. The word nepotism comes from the Latin word nepos, nepotis meaning nephew. It is very commonly used as a word describing connection that allows anyone to obtain a certain job. In the Philippines, it is known as Compadre System in terms of economic and employment.

    Types of NEPOTISM . . .

    Papal nepotism
    Nepotism gained its name after the church practice in

    the Middle Ages, when some Catholic popes and bishops, who had taken vows of chastity, and therefore usually had no children of their own, gave their nephews such positions of preference as were often accorded by fathers to son. Several popes elevated nephews and other relatives to the cardinalate. Often, such appointments were a means of continuing a papal "dynasty.

    Political nepotism
    Nepotism is a common accusation in politics when the

    relative of a powerful figure ascends to similar power seemingly without appropriate qualifications.

    The prohibition against nepotism in the government service is found in Section 59, Chapter 7, Book V of the Administrative Code of 1987 which reads:

    Sec. 59. Nepotism.


    a. All appointments in the national, provincial, city and municipal governments or in any branch or instrumentality thereof, including government-owned or controlled corporations, made in favor of a relative of the appointing or recommending authority, or of the chief of the bureau or office, or of the persons exercising immediate supervision over him, are hereby prohibited.
    As used in this Section, the word "relative" and members of the family referred to are those related within the third degree either of consanguinity or of affinity.

    Continuation..
    b. The following are exempted from the operation of the rules on nepotism:
    (a) persons employed in a confidential capacity, (b) teachers, (c) physicians, and (d) members of the Armed Forces of the Philippines:

    The restriction mentioned in subsection (1) shall not be applicable to the case of a member of any family who, after his or her appointment to any position in an office or bureau, contracts marriage with someone in the same office or bureau, in which event the employment or retention therein of both husband and wife may be allowed. C. In order to give immediate effect to these provisions, cases of previous appointments which are in contravention hereof shall be corrected by transfer, and pending such transfer, no promotion or salary increase shall be allowed in favor of the relative or relatives who were appointed in violation of these provisions

    Examples of nepotism in Philippines:


    The incumbent Mayor Omar Kalim of Lianga, Surigao, appointed his legitimate son as Meat Inspector, but certified that the appointee was not a relative by consanguinity or affinity. He was prosecuted criminally and punished for falsification of public document (Art. 171, par. 4 or the RPC). Mayor Amelita Navarro of Santiago City, Isabela is scheduled for arraignment on Sept. 23, as ordered by the Sandiganbayan after the Office of the Ombudsman found probable cause to indict her for nepotism. Navarros nepotism case arose from her alleged appointment of her husband, former Isabela board member Jose Navarro, in the Santiago Water District's board in 2005.

    Other examples of nepotism in Philippines. .

    In the case of Constantia De Guzman, she has appointed her son, her sons girlfriend, nephews and close family friends to sensitive positions. For instance, the employees said the son of De Guzman is now holding the position of confidential executive assistant and his girlfriend, a young lawyer, as executive director of a PAGC division involved in investigating complaints against officials. The other family members, such as nephews, as well as close family friends have been appointed as consultants with a minimum monthly salary equivalent to $600 each, the employees alleged. Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA) chief Dionisio Santiago is in hot water for appointing his daughter and 2 grandchildren to permanent positions in the agency. A document obtained by ABS-CBN News revealed that he appointed his daughter, Mylyn Santiago, as PDEA disbursing officer in 2008. Santiago also appointed to permanent positions a nephew, Peejay Santiago Ponce, and niece Sarah Marie Santiago Ponce. Civil Service Commission chair Francisco Duque said Santiago violated Executive Order (EO) 292 and Section 49 of Presidential Decree 807 on nepotism.

    Lim charged with nepotism


    Members of a civil society group filed nepotism charges against Manila Mayor Alfredo Lim before the Civil Service Commission (CSC) for appointing two of his relatives to posts in the city government. Emilio Manaois, one of the 10 complainants and a member of the Manileo Kontra Abuso, said in a statement that Lim violated Section 59 of Executive Order 292. Manaois said Lim appointed his son, Rogelio Lim, as Government Assistant Head III on July 2, 2007. Exactly a year later, Rogelio was promoted to head the Manila City Barangay Bureau. Lim also appointed his brother-in-law, retired colonel Franklin Gacutan, as Executive Assistant III on July 1, 2008 and as chief of the Mayors Complaint and Action Team and chief of the Manila Traffic and Parking Bureau. Manaois said the offices headed by the younger Lim and Gacutan are directly under the control and supervision of the Office of the Mayor. Lim violated the law since he appointed a relative within the third civil degree of consanguinity or affinity, according to Manaois. He also said Lim also violated the law when he appointed Gacutan as Executive Assistant III since the post should belong to a career service executive and not a retired policeman.
