Gusto mong maintindihan kung paano tumataas ang sahod sa government? Ang Salary Grade (SG) system ang basehan ng sweldo ng lahat ng government employees, na pinapatupad ng Department of Budget and Management.

ANO ANG SALARY GRADE?
Ito ang numerical level (SG 1–33) na nagtatakda ng basic salary depende sa position, responsibility, at qualifications.

SALARY GRADE LADDER:
SG 1–10 (ENTRY LEVEL)
• Utility Worker, Clerk, Aide
• Basic support roles
• Mas mababang qualifications required

SG 11–20 (TECHNICAL / PROFESSIONAL)
• Teachers, Nurses, Engineers, Admin Officers
• Kadalasan college degree + eligibility
• Dito nagsisimula ang career growth

SG 21–26 (SUPERVISORY LEVEL)
• Division Chiefs, Senior Specialists
• May leadership at decision-making roles

SG 27–30 (EXECUTIVE LEVEL)
• Directors, Regional Heads
• Mataas na responsibility at experience

SG 31–33 (TOP LEADERSHIP)
• Cabinet Secretaries (SG 31)
• Vice President (SG 32)
• President (SG 33)

IMPORTANT INSIGHTS
• Habang tumataas ang SG, tumataas ang salary at responsibility
• Bawat SG may “Step” (Step 1–8) depende sa years of service
• Salary increases ay standardized sa ilalim ng Salary Standardization Law

REALITY CHECK
Hindi instant ang pag-akyat sa SG ladder—kailangan ng experience, promotion, at consistent performance.

PRO TIP
Kung target mo ang mataas na SG:
• Mag-focus sa in-demand skills (IT, management, planning)
• Kumuha ng trainings at certifications
• Aim for promotion, hindi lang tenure

SOURCES AND REFERENCES:
• Department of Budget and Management – Salary Standardization Law (SSL V), Salary Grade Table
• Civil Service Commission – Position Classification System

Always have a positive outlook no matter what circumstances you are in!

High performers are really sometimes BULLIES!
