DepEd declares half-day work on Holy Wednesday


Work in the Department of Education (DepEd) will be suspended starting 12 noon on Holy Wednesday, April 13, 2022.

"To give sufficient time for all Department of Education (DepEd) officials and employees (teaching and non-teaching personnel) to prepare for the observance of Holy Thursday and Good Friday, work in all DepEd offices and schools is suspended starting at 12:00 pm on April 13, 2022," DepEd Secretary Leonor Briones said in Memorandum No. 031.

Offices and units whose functions involve the delivery of emergency services and performance of other vital services, however, "are expected to render services when necessary," the memo added.

Maundy Thursday and Good Friday are regular non-working holidays in the Philippines.  —KBK, GMA News
