Roxas City Mayor Alan Celino is now reviewing the status of 630 working casual employees at the Roxas City Hall to make sure that “ghost employees” do not exist.

Casual employees are those with designated plantilla positions under a fixed term and whose employment is assessed by the Civil Service Commission. They are also accorded benefits given to regular employees.

A ghost employee refers to a person on the payroll who does not work for the City Hall. The so-called ghost may be real or fictitious, and the person behind the scheme may have included the friend or relative to the payroll.
