BFP-NCR DIRECTOR RESHUFFLES PERSONNEL

In response to Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) Secretary Jesse M. Robredo’s directive to initiate reforms in the Bureau of Fire Protection (BFP) – National Capital Region (NCR), Chief Supt. Santiago Laguna, BFP-NCR Director has ordered a reshuffle of BFP Personnel at the NCR.

“This action is likewise devised in order to promote equal opportunity for career development to all our personnel,” Laguna said.

He further said that the reassignment or movement of personnel is usually being implemented in any uniformed organization in order to pave way to others toward career development.

The shake-up which was implemented last Friday, Sept. 30, 2011 affected at least 21 officials of the regional office.

Among those covered by the reshuffle were : S/Insp. Flor-Ian A. Guerrero Chief, IAS, QCFD was reassigned to Chief, IAS, Manila Fire District, and Insp. Guillermo E. Firmalino, Jr., Chief, IAS, Manila Fire District, was reassigned to Chief, IAS, QCFD, Insp. Angelie S. Salva was reassigned as Chief, Personnel Records Section, ORD-NCR, Insp. Lourdes Cristy C.

Hagape was reassigned as Sub-Station Commander, Tejeros FSS, Makati CFS, FD-III, Insp. Ely D. Timuat II was reassigned to Makati City Fire Station, FD-III.

Meanwhile, Laguna will be launching their Anti-Corruption Campaign dubbed “Magsumbong kay RD at kay DILG Secretary”. This program encourages community to support the BFP and DILG’s campaign to curb corruption in the organization by directly reporting through txt messages or personally visit their offices and air their grievances against BFP personnel particularly those who are applying for Fire Safety Inspection Certificates or other clearances.
