Office of the President(OP)

Greetings! I would like to request the national-level Omnibus Guidelines on the Cancellation or Suspension of Classes and Work in Schools, Government Offices, and Private Institutions in the Event of Natural Disasters, Power Outages/Power Interruptions, and Other Calamities. I request that such comprehensive national guidelines, contained in one or multiple issuances, to be sent as a reply herein are those that remain effective and valid up to this date for all levels of education and government work, including the guidance you provide on private institutions in times of adverse weather conditions and other emergencies. I would appreciate it if you could also provide me with guidance as to the workflow or procedures for how the national government decides whether to cancel or suspend classes, including those pre-, during, and post-disasters. Furthermore, I hope to be provided with guidance as to how these guidelines cover or apply those students who are in their practicum/on-the-job trainings/Related Learning Experiences/internships and other similar endeavors. Such shall be used as references for drafting proposed policies that will ensure the welfare of the community, including schools. Thank you so much.
