APPLYING GOVERNMENT POSITION:UNMARRIED PREGNANT

Hello! Gusto ko lang po itanong kung magiging hindrance ba ang pagiging single pregnant para matanggap sa government position? Actually, tanggap na ako mga requirements na lang ang kulang hindi alam ng agency about sa situation ko kasi i'm afraid na mawalaang chance ko magkatrabaho ng permanent. I have already three kids, forth ngayon ang ipinagbubuntis ko. I didn't tell sa PDS ko na may anak na ako kasi I'm not married and we're living together ng partner ko. Ano ba dapat kong gawin?

Please help naman.

i dont think so na hindrance sa govt service ang pagpasok mo because of ur condition. Just remember do not conceal or wag mong itago about your condition. Hindi ka naman sa private sector nag apply. At kung sa private sector, bawal din mag discriminate ang employer para gawing condition for employment na buntis o single mother ang babaeng nag aaply ng trabaho...dapat you possess the minimum qualification for the position sa government agency.

So, qualified ba ako na ma fall under RA 8972/ Solo parent Act ....

( Unmarried mother/father who has preferred to keep and rear
his/her child/children instead of having others care for them or give
them up to a welfare institution; ???? kahit na kasama ko tatay ng mga anak ko? sa likod kasi ng personal data sheet my lalagyan ng check kung qualified ba ako sa solo parent act. Eh,sa nalilito ako kasi hindi naman talaga ako solo sa pagtataguyod ng anak.

malalaman naman din ng agency na buntis ako kasi sa requirement na CSC 211 form medical certificate. so paglinagay ko mga pangalan ng anak ko sa personal data sheet ok lang kahit single ako??

Baka kasi i-disapproved ng civil service commission ang pagtanggap sa akin para sa posisyon kasi hindi ako kasal...nalilito kasi ako sa mga batas...like family code okung ano pa...gusto ko lang malaman kung may batas bang nagsasaad na hindi hindrance ang pagiging buntis ko (5 months na)????......pasado na ako kasi requirements na lang ang aasikasuhin ko....

silverfir: Sinabi mo na unmarried ka, so solo parent ka. Kasi kung kasal ka hindi ka solo, kung hindi dalawa kayo. Hindi batayan an pagtataguyod, an importante ay yung "estado" mo sa kasalukuyan, hindi ka kasal di ba, pero kasama mo o live in kayo ng BF mo, tama. Kaya solo parent ka.

alam mo sa gobyerno dapat matapat ka sa application, kung hindi baka kasuhan ka ng pagbubulaan o perjury tungkol sa estatado mo sa buhay. Yung bang inaplayan mo na position may requirement ba na dapat single o may asawa o hiwalay sa asawa. Siguro, wala naman yan sa position na inaplayan mo.

So, ideclare mo ang totoong estado mo sa buhay.
