The Department of Budget and Management (DBM), in a news release, said the CNA bonus will be given to qualified regular, contractual and casual civilian personnel of national government agencies as well as local government units (LGUs), state universities and colleges (SCUs), government-owned and controlled corporations (GOCCs) and local water districts who are working either full-time or part-time.

Starting Dec. 15, state workers will also get a Productivity Enhancement Incentive (PEI), which amounts to PHP5,000
