NFA WORKER, MECHANIC ARE DANGAL NG BAYAN AWARDEES

Two exceptional laborers are among the recipients of the 2023 Outstanding Public Officials and Employees (Dangal ng Bayan) Award, announced Civil Service Commission (CSC) Chairperson Karlo Nograles.

Bernardino D. Dabuet, a Utility Worker II at the National Food Authority (NFA), will be commended for demonstrating professionalism and excellence in service through innovative and creative approaches, earning him the nickname “The Engineer” among his peers at the NFA.

The Dangal ng Bayan Award is conferred on an individual for performance of extraordinary act of public service and consistent demonstration of exemplary ethical behavior of an official or employee based on the eight norms of conduct provided under Republic Act No. 6713.

Beyond Dabuet’s primary responsibilities encompassing electrical work, carpentry, landscaping, and plumbing, he extends his support to forklift operation, machine maintenance, driving, and various other tasks. His versatile skill set has significantly reduced labor costs for the NFA.

Another awardee is Fernando S. Viado, who serves as Administrative Aide VI (Mechanic II) at the City Government of Antipolo. He will be honored for his unwavering dedication to public service. Renowned as the indispensable figure for preventive maintenance and upkeep of the city’s motor vehicles, Viado remains steadfast in his commitment to serve in the public sector despite lucrative job offers from private entities. Despite facing partial deafness due to a work-related incident, he continues to excel in his role within the city government.

“Alongside eight other recipients of the Dangal ng Bayan award, these two individuals have exemplified what it means to go above and beyond the call of duty. They did not let their personal limitations prevent them from satisfactorily meeting—even exceeding—the requirements of their jobs,” announced Chairperson Nograles.
