"We need to continue strengthening public accountability and integrity via citizen engagement. One effective mechanism in place is the Contact Center ng Bayan (CCB).

Pursuant to Section 30 of the IRR of Republic Act No. 11032, the CCB as the feedback facility of the CSC shall be part of the complaints mechanism under the Citizen’s Charter of government agencies.

For almost a decade, the CSC continued to operate the CCB and it has acted on more than a million complaints and requests. Last year, the facility was able to resolve a total of 211,726 transactions. This, from a total of 212,382 transactions received, posting a resolution rate of 99.69%.

The Futures of the Philippine Civil Service System include modernizing the CCB facility to improve its efficiency and responsiveness so it can service the transacting public for at least a decade more, and provide evidence-based recommendations to improve the delivery of services of frontline offices based on public feedback.

Corollary to this, we encourage government agencies to strengthen their respective public feedback mechanisms and engage our citizens' participation in process and systems improvement."
