(Eagle News)–The Palace has released a memo allowing asynchronous classes in public schools on Oct. 31.
According to Memorandum Circular No. 38 signed by Executive Secretary Lucas Bersamin, a work-from-home arrangement shall also be implemented in government offices.
Exempted from the setup, though, are agencies whose functions involve the “delivery of basic health services, preparedness/ response to disasters and calamities and/or the performance of other vital services.”
Any arrangement to the effect is left to the discretion of private companies and private schools, the memo said.
