Important Announcement [MECQ from Aug 21-31]

[Important Announcement]


In accordance with the national government’s announcement of the shift to Modified Enhanced Community Quarantine (MECQ) in the Greater Manila Area or NCR Plus Bubble, as well as the UP Diliman announcement, the UP College of Engineering staff and members of the faculty will still adopt a work from home (WFH) arrangement and maintain a skeletal workforce from August 21 to August 31.


For staff, please coordinate with your supervisors and fill-up the form sent by the UPD HRDO for the WFH setup. For faculty, please coordinate with your respective Institute Directors or Department Chairpersons.


Non-urgent concerns and documents that need wet signatures will have to wait until the MECQ is lifted after August 31 for processing. Please do not request digital signatures for documents that require wet signatures, unless both are explicitly required.


In exceptional cases, when personnel performing essential functions need to enter a UPCoE facility, then consider the following protocols:
Step 1: Inform the immediate supervisor regarding the request to enter the relevant UPCoE building.
Step 2: The immediate supervisor notifies the Department Chairperson or Institute Director regarding the request.
Step 3: The Department Chairperson or Institute Director notifies the Office of the Associate Dean for Administration for approval.
