1. Pursuant to Civil Service Commission-Memorandum Circular (CSC-MC) No. 41, s. 1998 (Omnibus Rules on Leave), as amended by CSC MC No. 9, s. 2012 (Amendment to Section 6 [Teacher's Leave] Rule XVI of Omnibus Rules on Leave), the teachers are not entitled to the usual vacation and sick leave credits but to Proportional Vacation Pay (PVP), which refers to compensation of teaching personnel during Christmas and summer /long vacation. The total PVP earned by teachers shall be computed in proportion to the number of days teachers have served during the school year. The Department shall provide computation every school year.

 

2. In this regard, the Department of Education (DepEd) provides the field offices with the guidelines on the Computation of the Proportional Vacation Pay for School Year (SY) 2022-2023 for all public elementary and secondary school teachers. In the computation of the PVP, vacation service credits may be used to offset the absences of a teacher due to illness as prescribed under DepEd Order (DO) No. 53, s. 2003 titled Updated Guidelines on Grant of Vacation Service Credits to Teachers, or to offset proportional deduction in vacation salary due to absence for personal reasons or late appointment under Rule I (11) of MC 41, s. 1998.

 

3. For SY 2022-2023, teachers who rendered continuous service from August 22, 2022 to July 7, 2023, shall be entitled to a total of 68 days PVP from school break and Christmas vacation days, computed as follows:

 

Actual Number of Days Served (August 22, 2022 to July 7, 2023)	320 days
Less: Number of Christmas vacation days earned (December 19, 2022 to January 3, 2023)	-16 days
Total Actual Number of Days Served	304 days
Number of Long School Break (July 8, 2023 to August 28, 2023)	52 days
Plus: Number of Christmas vacation days earned (December 19, 2022 to January 3, 2023)	+16 days
Total PVP earned (Long School Break and Christmas Vacation)	68 days

 

4. Below is the derivative factor/multiplier to be used for the computation of absences and PVP for SY 2022-2023:

 

            Multiplier/Factor      =          Total PVP Earned / Total Actual No. of Days Served

 

                                                =          68 days / 304 days

 

                                                =          0.224
