All government officials and employees are strictly prohibited from engaging in any form of gambling during office hours, the Civil Service Commission (CSC) warned.
In an advisory released yesterday, the CSC emphasized that the prohibition covers online gambling, mobile games with betting elements, and participating in land-based gambling establishments—whether inside or outside government premises, and regardless of whether the platform used is legal or licensed.
Any act of gambling in the workplace, whether physical or virtual, may be deemed conduct prejudicial to the best interest of the service and could result in administrative sanctions under existing civil service rules and regulations.
CSC Chairperson Marilyn B. Yap reminded all civil servants, “Let us all do our part in promoting ethical conduct and professionalism in the civil service. The CSC is studying further regulatory measures and supports legislative initiatives toward establishing a comprehensive ban on gambling activities among government personnel during work hours.”
Government agencies have also been encouraged to adopt internal guidelines and monitoring mechanisms to ensure compliance and prevent practices that may erode public trust.
