MANILA, Philippines — True to his promise of ridding the Department of Social Welfare and Development of rude personnel, DSWD Secretary Erwin Tulfo has sacked two employees for being disrespectful.

The employees, whose identities were withheld, were assigned at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport and the DSWD’s satellite office in Tagbilaran, Bohol.

Tulfo said the DSWD employee detailed at the airport was relieved for disregarding a mother and her child, who had just arrived in the country.

The mother sought assistance from the DSWD employee about the travel guidelines for minors imposed by the Inter-Agency Task Force for the Management of Emerging Infectious Diseases.

Tulfo said the DSWD employee in Bohol was relieved for disrespecting a mother, who asked about the requirements for the Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program or 4Ps.

Five telephone operators of the DSWD were reprimanded for rendering poor service to the public, he said.

“Let’s stop the ill treatment of those who ask us for help,” Tulfo said.
