University President Dr. Benjamin Pecayo and FANwSSU Vice President Dr. Romeo B. Santos convened with key officials, heads of offices, and representatives to deliberate on the implementation of Department of Budget and Management (DBM) Budget Circular 2025-2 governing the grant of the Collective Negotiation Agreement (CNA) Incentive.
During the meeting, it was affirmed that the University fully satisfied all prescribed conditions for the grant of the CNA Incentive, namely: the existence of a valid CNA, the achievement beyond established performance accomplishment targets, and the timely submission of required accountability reports.
In line with DBM guidelines on the allowable amount, the University is set to release the assured CNA Incentive to eligible personnel not earlier December 15, 2025.
The CNA Incentive may be granted to both management and rank-and-file employees of agencies with approved and successfully implemented CNAs, serving as recognition of collective efforts in meeting performance targets at lower cost and in advancing more efficient and sustainable operations through cost-cutting measures and systems improvement.
This development underscores the University’s sustained commitment to performance excellence, accountability, and shared gains arising from effective labor-management cooperation.
