UPGRADING THE POSITION OF SANITATION INSPECTOR TO THE NEXT 
HIGHER SALARY GRADE AND APPROPRIATING FUNDS THEREFOR
EXPLANATORY NOTE
The State shall protect and promote the right to health of the people and instill 
health consciousness among them as provided for under Article II, Section 15 of the 
1987 Constitution.
As public health workers, sanitation inspectors are the front liners in the 
prevention and control of environmental health-related diseases. Since sanitary 
inspectors work closely with the community, they are in a very crucial position to effect 
change in the sanitary habits and practices of the community. They work together 
with the rural health units in the prevention of epidemics and outbreaks of all kinds of 
diseases as provided for under Presidential Decree No. 856, otherwise known as "The 
Code of Sanitation of the Philippines."
This bill seeks to upgrade the position of sanitary inspectors to the next higher 
salary grade. By this, upgrading the salaries of the Sanitarians, they will highly be 
motivated to the end in view of better fulfilling their responsibilities to provide quality 
health care, truly responsive to the needs of the community's primary health care.
In view of the foregoing, the approval of this bill is earnestly sought.
RAMON/BONG REVILLA, JR. .
