Section 8. Permanent Appointment. A permanent appointment upon
approval of the CSC shall be issued to a person who meets the qualification
standards established for the faculty or academic rank based on the
provisions of this Merit System and upon successful completion of the
mandatory probationary period defined in Section 4 below.

Section 9. Probationary Period. The probationary period shall be for
one year. The probationary period may be extended to cover the duration of
study leave approved under the University faculty and Staff Development
Program (FSDP). Those on probationary status shall be issued permanent
appointments within the probationary period, but after this, they can either
be retained for satisfactory performance or dropped from the service for
unsatisfactory conduct or want of capacity. This policy ensures that only
those who are fit to serve in the faculty and academic staff of the University
shall be retained in the service.

Section 10. Criteria for Recruitment and Appointment. The PASUC
Common Criteria for Evaluation (CCE) and the pertinent guidelines, rules
and procedures relative thereto will be used by the University to supplement
policies and guidelines on the recruitment and appointment of faculty and
academic staff as established in this Merit System.

faculty or academic staff are comparatively at par, preferences

giving preference to insiders whose qualifications and competence
are determined to be at par with applicants from outside the
University.

• The mere filing of an administrative charge shall not constitute a
disqualification for promotion. When an employee who is
legitimately entitled to promotion is administratively charged, the
