AbstractThis article tells the hitherto unknown history of the rickshaw in the Philippines. The Filipinos’ encounter with this transport mode was brief and largely revolved around a failed rickshaw business in Manila in 1902. The venture quickly fizzled out, but not without controversy, deeply rooted in the colliding socio-political forces in the city at that time: the reliance on a non-motorized transport system; the consolidation of American colonial rule against the backdrop of an ongoing revolution; the birth of the first Filipino labor federation; and the implementation of a law banning the employment of Chinese workers from unskilled trades. The controversy turned the rickshaw into a disputed symbol. On the one hand, the rickshaw enterprise was criticized by Filipino carriage drivers and nationalist labor leaders, who viewed the vehicle as an essentially foreign apparatus that would enslave Filipinos. On the other hand, the Americans used the Filipinos’ opposition to the rickshaw to prove the supposed un-modernity of the lazy native workers, who failed to grasp the idea of the dignity of labor. These disputes were inextricably linked to the clash of discourses between Filipino nationalism and colonial modernity, two competing perspectives both influenced by a comparative transnational frame.

Using categorization of interactive metadiscourse, the present study attempted to contrastively compare editorials of two writing cultures, Filipinos and Americans. The objectives of the study were identifying the cultural features revealed by the Filipino editorialists and Anglo-American editorialists, and determining how the two writing cultures differ in the utilization of interactional metadiscourse resources in their editorials. A total of 180 editorials served as the corpus of the study; 90 from the Philippine Daily Inquirers (PDY) and 90 from the New York Times (NYT). The findings revealed that American editorialists significantly employed metadiscource resources as compared to Filipino editorialists specifically the employment of code glosses and transitional devices. This can be attributed to their writing confidence in utilizing their native language for Americans, while second language for Filipinos. Cultural, political, and social realities also play a critical role in the utilization of metadiscoursal resources in writing.The pedagogical implications were provided for future research directions.

All countries with significant coastlines and groups of islands inevitably produce seafarers at some time or other in the course of their economic development, and the two countries which are the subject of this paper are no exceptions. Chinese ships and seafarers were famously exploring the Indian Ocean more than a century before the arrival of the Portuguese and once the Spanish Pacific empire was established in the sixteenth century, the ships linking Mexico to Manila were mainly crewed by Filipinos. And it need hardly be said that Chinese and Filipinos have both been employed by foreign ship-owners throughout the twentieth century. What is unquestionably new is the magnitude of Filipino seafarers' employment in the world's merchant ships and the extraordinary growth of China as a nation with a major stake in the shipping industry, both as ship-owner and as a source of seafarers.

In the absence of hard registration or survey data on return migrants, this paper first seeks to identify the factors that reduce Filipinos' employment opportunities in countries affected by the current crisis and then carries out two rounds of simulation to estimate the orders of magnitude involved. The first round consists of a simple employment elasticity exercise. The second takes account of anticipated sectoral, occupational or other impacts. Finally, the paper briefly lists the measures available to the Government to deal with return migration.

Background: Some businesses, compared to million-dollar enterprises, fail to make an impact. As a result, some entrepreneurs resort to closing their businesses. To excel in their professions, they need to cope with business losses. Method: This paper used a phenomenological design to understand the participants lived experiences, particularly Filipino migrant workers who have experienced business loss, relative to the central question, How do Filipino professionals cope with business loss? Findings: Filipinos displaying entrepreneurial characteristics (business mindedness, profit orientation, future planning) have desires to raise enterprises. However, entrepreneurial trials (e.g. management issues, competition issues, financial burdens) will be faced, which result in business losses. They coped with losses through entrepreneurial solutions, specifically career motivation and family motivation. Conclusion: Maintaining an enterpriseis never easy as it requires sacrifices, time, and especially money. Business disasters come with overwhelming consequences and complications. Nevertheless, after facing different challenges of experiencing business loss, former entrepreneurs can achieve breakthroughs. This research aims to help future entrepreneurs cope with predicted business losses. Recommendation: The researchers recommend considering other coping mechanisms to explore other options for future entrepreneurs. Furthermore, it is also recommended to focus on one business nature and one employment sector to achieve more specific findings.

Filipinos have been moving to Iceland in increasing numbers since the 1990s, primarily for employment opportunities and to reunite with relatives. They are the third largest group of immigrants in Iceland and the largest group from Asia. The majority of them work in low-income jobs in the service and production sectors where they do not utilize their education. Many arrived with the help of relatives already living in Iceland. Based on multi-sited ethnographic research, this article examines the diverse mobilization of migrant capital in Iceland and in the Philippines. The analysis draws on Bourdieu’s concepts of capital and transnational theories to highlight how Filipinos draw on formal and informal resources in Iceland and their transnational social field in mobilizing their capital. Their extended kin groups in Iceland and networks back in the Philippines are important in building migrant capital in Iceland and in the Philippines. The study shows that this mobilization is not only affected by structural factors in Iceland, such as racialization, but also by economic position and cultural capital in the Philippines.

The case study presents results of the investigation on the impact of the sustainable livelihood program (SLP) implemented by City Social Welfare and Development (CSWD) to the marginalized Filipinos in Butuan City, Philippines. The study utilized the descriptive-correlational design to determine the extent of impact and tested the significant effect of the SLP to the improvement of their economic (employment, the creation of skills,) and social (peace development, personal satisfaction) of those beneficiaries of the said project. Though the triple constraints (time, scope, and cost) of the project was also present and limit this study, the researchers have collaborated with social workers and leaders of each community to ensure that the data-gathering plan met the standard requirement. Combination of purposive and convenience sampling techniques were mostly deployed during the survey, while observations and interviews from time to time were executed to validate other points which were critical in the interpretations and analyses of the results. The study had open new information that SLP project has a significant contribution in the social protection for those marginalized people not only in Butuan City but also in other regions of Philippines with a high population of marginalized Filipinos. The beneficiaries of the project mostly women were able to generate a new source of income that could support their daily needs. It also sparks hope for every marginalized Filipinos because there was this personal satisfaction achieved within themselves, 32 percent of the respondents agreed that it developed their well-being, while 41 percent believed SLP provide poverty alleviation. Most of the respondents concluded that SLP had created for positive peace development to their respective household, and to the community since it gives them the motivation to support this project so it will grow and become a sustainable livelihood program. The R-squared of .948 concludes that at least 94.8 percent of the variance on the impact of SLP project could explain the factors that influence economic and social development among the marginalized Filipinos in Butuan City, Philippines.

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to identify the factors influencing intention of Muslim Filipinos to give zakat on employment income.Design/methodology/approachThe study used the extended theory of planned behaviour – an extension of the theory of reasoned action – to investigate the factors influencing intention to give zakat. The theory introduces six variables (i.e. attitude, perceived behavioural control, injunctive norm, descriptive norm, moral norm and past behaviour) in predicting the intention to give zakat. Totally, 450 questionnaires were distributed to the respondents in a Muslim-majority area (i.e. Marawi City), and 384 cases were deemed usable. The data have been analysed using multiple regression analysis.FindingsThis paper finds that attitude, descriptive norm and moral norm have a positive relationship with the intention to give zakat. Meanwhile, perceived behavioural control, injunctive norm and past behaviour are found to have insignificant influence over intention. However overall, the study supports the extension of the theory of planned behaviour which accounts for 53 per cent of the variance in intention.Originality/valueThis paper provides new insights on factors influencing the intention to give zakat on a non-Muslim majority country setting where no zakat institution operates. This paper also used the extended theory of planned behaviour on zakat compliance literature.

Sabah has been the recipient of countless migrants for centuries. The most recent of these are largely Indonesians and Filipinos who come for economic reasons. The current economic turmoil has affected the capacity of the state to provide employment to both local and foreign workers. While Sabah is working towards reducing its dependence on foreign workers, it is likely that Sabah will continue to depend on migrant workers in the short and immediate term. The Sabah experience suggests that a more systematic approach is needed to regulate the flow of migrant labor in the region. But for this to succeed, the support and cooperation of all the relevant parties would be essential.

The Philippines is a country that has a good migrant worker management system. Based on Article 13 of the Philippine Constitution states that the state through the authority of the Human Rights Commission guarantees appropriate legal action for the protection of the human rights of all people in the Philippines as well as Filipinos working abroad. The research method in this paper uses the normative legal research method. This research method is a method that uses and analyzes written regulations which are closely related to the library. The research result of this paper is that the POEA is fully responsible to its President through the Minister of Manpower. The POEA's relationship with other institutions related to the protection of migrant workers is sub-coordinative. POEA is the mother for the protection of migrant workers. Legal protection agencies or agencies for migrant workers in the Philippines are maximizing the roles of the Philipine Overseas Employment Agency (POEA), Overseas Workers Welfare Administration (OWWA) and The Office of the Legal Assistant for Migrant Affairs (OLAMA). Where the POEA is assigned to monitor and supervise recruitment agencies in the Philippines, the OWWA provides Filipino migrant workers and their families with all the assistance they may need in enforcing contractual obligations by agencies or agencies and / or their principals, and OLAMA has the duty and authority to assist and protect who get unfair treatment, both physically and psychologically.

Many Filipinos prefer to work outside of the country because the opportunities and earnings are far superior to those offered in the Philippines. This correlational study aims to determine the awareness on Pag-IBIG Fund services and financial behavior and habits of Overseas Filipino Workers (OFW) members. The level of awareness of the Pag-IBIG Fund services includes Knowledge, Trust and Credibility, Sources and Channels, and Perceived Benefits, Barriers, and Engagement of OFW members while the efficiency level of financial behavior and habits of the members considers Savings Behavior, Investment Behavior, and Debt Management as factors. Furthermore, this study utilized a researchers-made survey questionnaire conducted to 300 respondents. Results revealed that OFW members are highly aware of the services offered by Pag-IBIG and they have high efficiency level when it comes to financial behavior and habits. Moreover, the correlation between years of employment and level of awareness on Pag-IBIG Fund services of the respondents as well as the efficiency level of financial behavior and habits and respondents’ demographic profiles are not significant. Further, the study exposed that OFW members exhibit a high level of efficiency in their financial behavior and habits, especially in savings and investment and a highly satisfactory awareness on Pag-IBIG Fund services. Specifically, age, gender, and civil status do not strongly influence financial efficiency while educational attainment impacts savings and debt management efficiency. Hence, these findings highlight the importance of education and awareness in fostering better financial habits among OFW members.

This article explores the roles of population, average earnings and employment rates in the sending and host countries on international migration. Using a model designed by Schultz (1982) for rural-urban migration, it also tests the validity of two hypotheses, namely, 1) the Harris-Todaro expected earnings hypothesis and 2) the symmetry hypothesis of effects of sending and host area variables on migration. The empirical analysis examines international migration from the Philippines to 26 non-Middle Eastern countries in the period 1981–1995. It uses fixed effects panel data regression method to determine the impact of the economic variables in the sending and host countries. Finally, it looks into the influence of economic transformations in the Philippines and the host countries, as well as the relaxation of migration policies by the host countries on the actual migration of Filipinos in the period 1987–1995.

The study evaluated the knowledge management capabilities of the National Commission on Muslim Filipinos (NCMF) in Region IX-B, including Basilan, Sulu, and TawiTawi, during the Fiscal Year 2023. The survey comprised 100 workers with five years of employment and a bachelor's degree, the majority of whom were female and under thirty. In terms of knowledge process, infrastructure, intellectual capital, and performance, the results demonstrated that the region possessed high knowledge management capabilities in relation to organizational survival and sustainability of competitive strength. Profile variables such as age, gender, length of service, and educational attainment did not significantly mediate the assessment of knowledge management capability. The study supports the Omotayo, F.O. (2015) model of knowledge management capability, which consists of dimensions such as knowledge management process, infrastructure, intellectual capital, and organizational performance. The group of employees who assessed the region's knowledge management capability in terms of organizational performance was probably the same group that assessed it in terms of knowledge management infrastructure, process, and intellectual capital.

This paper examines financial inclusion in the Philippines, benchmarking it against other developing Asian economies using the latest supply-side and demand-side data. It uses probit regressions on Philippine microdata from the World Bank’s 2021 Global Findex Database, providing a comparative analysis with the country’s regional peers. The study finds the Philippines leading in creating an enabling environment but shows mixed performance in financial outreach and uptake and lagging outcomes in account ownership and usage. Probit regressions reveal positive associations between financial inclusion and individual characteristics like education, income, and employment, and a nonlinear relationship with age. The study uncovers a smaller gender gap in formal account ownership and use and emerging disparities in financial technology access across education and income levels, particularly mobile money. Barriers such as high cost, distance, and lack of trust in financial institutions significantly hinder lower-income households, with Filipinos more affected by these barriers than their Association of Southeast Asian Nations counterparts.

SUMMARYKnowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) regarding rabies in Bohol, Philippines were assessed following introduction of the Bohol Rabies Prevention and Elimination Programme. A cross-sectional questionnaire was administered to 460 households chosen utilizing the WHO's Expanded Programme on Immunization coverage cluster survey technique with population proportionate to size. Scores for KAP were evaluated using linear regression. The majority of households had heard of rabies (94%); however, specific knowledge of rabies was limited. Only 18% knew to report a suspected rabid dog to the authorities. In multivariate analyses, having known someone with rabies had the greatest effect on knowledge scores. Employment (professional or non-professional) had the greatest effect on attitudes scores, and only the knowledge score was significantly associated with higher practices scores. Several factors, notably, personal experience with rabies, affect KAP in Bohol. The programme should continue to focus on education and include personal accounts to underscore why rabies prevention and control is so important.

Based on the industrial sectors in which group members are concentrated, the ethnic economies of various racial and ethnic groups became more distinctive from one another during the 1980s. Non-Hispanic whites continued to dominate key sectors in every metropolitan area studied. Their withdrawal from some others, however, left openings for other groups in apparel manufacturing and in a variety of trade and personal service activities. The void was filled by selected immigrant groups who had already begun to establish enclave economies by 1980: especially Koreans, Chinese, and Cubans. As many as two-thirds of these groups’ members worked in their enclaves in some regions. At the same time, other immigrant and minority groups, especially blacks, Puerto Ricans, Mexicans, and Filipinos remained highly dependent on employment niches in the public sector or working for other groups in the private sector. The model of a dual city (with a mainly white core economy and a minority periphery) is losing its descriptive power due to the divergent paths taken by different nonwhite groups.

Philippines now faces a big challenge with regards to the labor force. The ASEAN Economic Community was made to integrate the economies of the member-countries. The Philippines before was behind academically because of the curriculum used. To address the problem, the Philippines uses the K-12 Program which is an international standard and what the other members of ASEAN use. So, it is important to know what jobs are indemand so that the students will take the course for the specific job. This study is aimed to know the in-demand jobs of the Southeast Asian nations and to help the Filipinos what’s the best career path they should take for a bigger chance of getting employed in 2017. This study is only limited not beyond the year 2017. This study will help job-seekers to what jobs they have the best chance being employed.A quantitative approach was used in this study. Data were acquired from the 10 members of the Association of the Southeast Asian Nations. Those data are the employment, enrolment, and survival rate of the professionals in each country, in which the countries differ. The countries also differ in their supply, skills, wages, and productivity. From all the acquired information, the researchers found out that the Philippines is second in the highest number of unemployed youth and ranks fourth in the employment rate.The 10 countries also have different in-demand jobs. But all in all, the most in-demand job in Southeast Asia is engineering. This is followed by accounting, teaching, nursing, and IT.

Immigrants have become an integral component of socio-economic development, and play a diverse set of roles, preserving a range of influences on the economy of their origin. International migration, usually network-driven is a natural consequence of capitalist market formation in the developing world penetrating peripheral regions. Every year 2.5 million (25 lakh) Indians migrate overseas, which is the highest annual number of migrants in the world. Indians represent the second largest U.S. immigrant group, after Mexicans and ahead of Chinese and Filipinos. The 2.7 million Indianimmigrants residing in the United States as of 2021 made up 6 per cent of the total foreignborn population, and their numbers continue to expand. USA ranks second on the list with so many growth opportunities accessible for Indians in the spheres of technology and biological sciences. Based on secondary sources of data, the present research assesses the trend, major flow of immigrants and their contribution to the development of Indian economy, which concludes that with the help of remittances, immigration can contribute positively to the developmental activity of a country, including employment, economic growth, poverty reduction, social empowerment, and technological progress.

Outcomes-Based Education (OBE) encompasses the learning, awareness, abilities, and viewpoints that students should learn to attain their successful and satisfying life cycles as human beings, members of society, and at employment. However, OBE has recently become a topic of debate and controversy. Some critics consider this educational approach ineffective, while others see it as solution to a country's educational problems. In this context, it is important to consider the nature of outcomes-based education and the challenges that come with its implementation in the Philippines. Rather than criticizing the notions associated with it, this paper focuses on such a reflection. The paper introduces several important notions (both good and bad) in Outcomes-Based Education and recommends methods in which these concepts may perhaps be studied further. This paper is not purposed to negate the system nor to agree with the sets of standards embedded in this kind of system in Philippine education but to establish awareness on how this system works. But if OBE will be a miracle cure in the Philippines (or a plague to the country), Filipinos must play their part in order to achieve the ideal goals since they are the ones who are greatly affected either way.

The contribution of cooperatives in the Philippine economy has been increasingly felt as it generated millions of business volume from various sectors and thousands of direct employment among Filipinos, however, only few continue to exist. This paper used management practices as predictors in creating a financial viability model among cooperatives. This paper clustered the multipurpose cooperatives operating in a Philippine province into large, medium, and small cooperatives based on their asset size and chose the top two as representative cooperatives in each cluster for a total of six out of 42 multipurpose cooperatives. This study assessed the management practices using these dimensions, strategy, execution, culture, structure, talent, leadership, innovation, and strategic linkages and partnerships and measured financial viability using Altman’s Z”-score model. This study also applied regression analysis in creating a prediction model which revealed that only culture, structure, and strategic linkages and partnerships can significantly predict financial viability among cooperatives. The model suggests that cooperative’s financial viability increases when it puts premium on improving its culture and structure. The model even suggests that cooperatives are discouraged in making strategic linkages and partnerships to become financially viable. In other words, this model proposes that closed-type cooperatives seem to be more financially viable than open-type cooperatives.

Many Deaf Filipinos remain unemployed despite the increased attention level from the hospitality industry. The study aimed to examine the levels of awareness on Deaf culture and FSL skills within the hospitality industry of Zamboanga City to foster sustainable employment - including quality service; it used a descriptive research design employing qualitative and quantitative approaches. The sample group was purposively selected from 4 hotels and 8 restaurants - duly accredited by the Department of Tourism Region 9 as of December 31, 2018. The study revealed that Zamboanga City hospitality industry stakeholders were aware 1) of Deaf culture; that 2) Deaf individuals can visually communicate through reading, writing, gestures, or FSL; 3) they can visually communicate with Deaf individuals regardless of their FSL knowledge or skills; also, 4) there was no significant difference in the respondents’ levels of awareness on Deaf culture and FSL skills in the area; 5) an intervention program is needed to increase Deaf Zamboangeños' hospitality employability. The study concluded that Zamboangeño hospitality industry stakeholders 1) were aware of Deaf culture and FSL skills despite linguistic differences; 2) can visually communicate with Deaf individuals despite having little to no FSL skills nor Deaf culture knowledge; also, 3) the communication models affect Deaf individuals' hospitality employability and capability; and, 4) Deaf culture awareness and FSL skills through interactive interaction among Deaf and hearing individuals, within hospitality business operations, are crucial in emerging communication patterns.

In 2020, there were 7.2 million jobless Filipinos which may have been mostly caused by the lockdowns imposed during the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. In the education sector, more than 800 private schools closed which affected the employment of over 4,000 educators. Although the unemployment rate in 2023 has since gone down to 4.8 per cent, this experience may have left a lasting effect on job seekers in general and on those in the teaching profession in particular. This study aimed to investigate whether the pandemic’s impact on the loss of employment of educators have altered their mindset in terms of career competitiveness and whether the Dark Triad of Personality Traits plays a role in this. The objective of this study was to investigate the existence of relationships between the Dark Triad of Personality Traits and Cooperation and Competition. The respondents who volunteered for this study were 44 educators who teach in different levels at several schools located in various areas of Metro Manila. The Cooperative/Competitive Strategy Scale (CCSS) as well as the Short Dark Triad (SD3) instruments were administered on the respondents. The CCSS results showed that the respondents exhibited high Cooperation and moderate Competition. The SD3 results revealed that the respondents possess moderate Machiavellianism, moderate Narcissism and low Psychopathy. A significant moderate positive relationship was established between Machiavellianism and Competition. This implies that as the respondents’ Machiavellianism increases, their Competition moderately increases and vice versa. In addition, a significant moderate inverse relationship between the respondents’ age and their Psychopathy scores was found. This suggests that as the respondents’ age increases, their Psychopathy tends to decrease moderately and vice versa. Keywords: Dark Triad, Machiavellianism, Narcissism, Psychopathy, Cooperation, Competition

The rising availability of Paracetamol to the public raises the concern of consumers experiencing drug-food interactions, due to their lack of knowledge in the area. This study aims to assess the knowledge, attitude and practice on Paracetamol - food interaction among selected adults in the Philippines, as these drug-food interactions may unknowingly lessen or increase the drug's effect. A quantitative cross-sectional survey was conducted, utilizing a convenience sampling on 384 Filipinos who have taken Paracetamol. A validated online questionnaire was used to gather data with regards to the respondents’ socio-demographic characteristics and their knowledge, attitude and practices, that will measure that extent of their awareness on Paracetamol - food interaction. Mean, frequencies, Chi-square test, Spearman's rho and Kendall's tau-b were the statistical treatments and methods used in the study. The respondents showed Poor Knowledge, Neutral Attitude and Moderate Practices regarding Paracetamol - food interaction. The results of Chi-square test indicate that out of all the socio-demographic variables, only the Sex (p-value = 0.027) and Employment status (p-value = 0.006) showed a significant association with the respondents’ Knowledge. On the other hand, the Attitude and Practices showed no significant association with the five socio-demographic variables. Thus, a heedful understanding on the significance of Paracetamol - food interaction is a must, where the role of pharmacists in terms of patient counseling should be highlighted.

The Department of Education (DepEd) remains unwavering in its commitment to guiding and nurturing Filipinos who hold a deep love for their country and actively participate in nation-building. It steadfastly pursues a learner-centered approach, instilling values that inspire youth to be God-fearing, humane, environmentally conscious, and patriotic. In line with its mission, DepEd CALABARZON aligns with this vision and emphasizes the importance of values education in the Philippine Curriculum. Recognizing the significance of values, DepEd consistently integrates core values – MakaDiyos, Makatao, Makakalikasan, and Makabansa – into its educational framework. These values are assessed quarterly alongside academic achievements, shaping learners into well-rounded individuals. Edukasyon sa Pagpapakatao and the Homeroom Guidance Program further foster commendable values and attitudes, motivating students to excel in both education and employment. However, the current assessment and recognition system fails to emphasize the importance of value formation, leading students to undervalue these essential qualities as they complete basic education. A cultural shift is necessary to promote positive values that foster a highly innovative and trust-based society. DepEd CALABARZON conducts a qualitative-quantitative study to identify factors contributing to learners’ values, characters, and attitudes and the challenges they face in evolving these traits. The study aims to propose an innovative character education program rooted in DepEd’s core values, Edukasyon sa Pagpapakatao, and Homeroom Guidance competencies. This program seeks to recognize excellence in shaping fully developed CALABARZON learners, thereby strengthening DepEd’s core values and producing notable graduates in the future.

The ethnic diversity of modern states raises the question of where successful countries are in terms of immigrant inclusion. The number of immigrants in Iceland has increased significantly since 2004, and by the end of 2016, immigrants made up around 10% of the population of Iceland. Research reveals a gap between immigrants and natives in terms of social and political inclusion. This paper examines the social and political integration of male and female immigrants in Iceland via comparisons with the native population. We ask how native Icelanders and people with a non-Icelandic background experience their social position and political participation within Icelandic society. We focus on political efficacy, ideas about what makes a good citizen, and subjective status position as indicators of the degree of social and political integration. We use data from the 2014 International Social Survey Programme (ISSP) on Citizenship, which is based on a random sample of 2,000 individuals and random samples of 600 individuals each targeting two of the largest immigrant groups in Iceland—Lithuanians and Poles—as well as the largest Asian immigrant group: Filipinos. Although the findings show integration of immigrants up to a certain extent, the differences between Icelandic and non-Icelandic participants are apparent and include certain disadvantages for participants with a foreign background. Although other variables—such as income, education, paid employment status, and age—play a larger role in social and political status than foreign nationality, the findings of this study suggest that there is room to improve the integration of immigrants in Iceland.

Folklore has always been a part of people’s lives, making it an all-encompassing body of culture which persists to exist from pre-industrial times even up to this day (Barber, 2006). Part of its persistence is the values it carries, which have shaped and helped us make sense of the world around us. By purposively selecting texts with the most read counts in a cyber archive, this paper aims to understand Philippine urban legends from a segment of texts archived and circulated online. Employing the structuralist framework by Leach (1973) and folktale category by Propp (1958), it aims to identify forms, motifs, and functions embedded in each creature discoursed in the urban tales. Results revealed that creatures are confined to the Aswang, White Lady, and Diwata tropes which are mainstream figures in Philippine urban legends. Motifs reinforced a gendered image attached to each monster which consequently led to men as victims and viewed as objects of hostilities, wherein the employment of palette was effective in evoking the intended effect in an urban horror tale. Consequently, these motifs justify the function they play, wherein each is discursive towards social and justice issues, including ecocritical concerns. It can be concluded that the internet as an archiving space is not an enemy of folklore but a critical factor in its diffusion and central propagator of our collective consciousness as Filipinos. Furthermore, it is recommended that expanding the scope of creatures and the amount of corpus to be included in the analysis will provide an array of findings that will reflect more of our rich folklore and literary traditions.

Financial stress is one of the challenges that everyone would like to win because prevailing over it results in a more peaceful life. Filipinos are renowned for their resilience in the face of adversity, as we can still smile despite all of life's challenges. Everyone has been touched spiritually, emotionally, physically, and financially due to this massive pandemic, and the war against it appears endless. Since day one, financial stability has been the number one concern, which is why the government has attempted to increase the people's demands. This quantitative and qualitative study examined the financial management system that these employees implemented to combat fatal infections. More than three hundred twenty-four randomly selected respondents completed the structured questionnaire, were interviewed, and provided photographic documentation for data collection. The majority of employees' budgets and savings were moderately affected, according to the research. It was also determined that there were no statistically significant differences between the effects of the pandemic and employment status, wage range, source of money, and purchasing techniques. In addition, the staff engaged in gardening, farming, earning a living, and accepting part-time activities such as pedicure manicures, artificial insemination of large animals, and tutorials, with a strong emphasis on online selling. However, additional interviews revealed that most needed to be financially prepared for the lockdown, as mentioned above. They resulted in additional borrowings because most were financially unstable and spent more than they had saved. Therefore, it is suggested that an extended program on proper financial management be considered to address the preparedness of this personnel for future crises. In addition, a lesson has been learned through the lengthy absence, which is to spend more time with family and friends because we never know what the next day will bring.

This exploratory study sought to identify relevant topics for financial education programs for Filipino Employment Permit System (EPS) workers in Korea. EPS workers are temporary migrant workers who return to their home countries after their contract of employment ends. The study reviewed existing financial education programs for migrants in Korea and the Philippines and collected primary data through surveys and focus group interviews to develop a suitable financial education program for Filipino EPS workers. The results revealed that Filipino EPS workers were passive users of Korean financial services and often lacked financial literacy. Also, they did not have much communication with their families in the Philippines about financial management. A forum about transnational financial education was organized to discuss the implications of the study findings and a pilot financial education program was developed.

This study estimates Filipino’s catastrophic and impoverishing out-of-pocket (OOP) healthcare expenditures on a regional perspective to measure the effectiveness and progress of Philippines’ healthcare financing system in ensuring population protection from excessive and unequal healthcare costs. Observations are drawn from the most recent household-based survey in the Philippines, 2018 and 2021 Family Income and Expenditure Survey, and grouped by four major regions: National Capital Region, the rest of Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao region. From 2018 to 2021, results showed that the distribution of catastrophic OOP healthcare expenditures decreases while depth of these payments increases across the four major regions. The highest incidences of these catastrophic payments were found in the rest of Luzon and Visayas regions, while the highest intensities were found in Mindanao region. Despite medicines and pharmaceuticals products dominance on OOP healthcare expenditures, payment on inpatient medical services drives the catastrophic expenditures of households. Aside, deepening poverty caused by healthcare payments were more evident in households residing in Mindanao regions, thus exposing this Filipino families to financial risk and poverty threats. Logistic regression analysis showed that aging households head, employment, and socio-economic status are significant and common factors affecting the likelihood of incurring excessive health expenditures across the regions. The risk of catastrophic and impoverishing effects of healthcare expenditures persists in the country. Low levels of catastrophic OOP healthcare expenditures may indicate that disadvantaged households focused on spending on basic necessities and struggle to afford healthcare due to high costs amid COVID 19, leading to foregone treatment. Thus, continuous implementation of fair and innovative ways of financing the healthcare system to reduce the financial burden of OOP payments on Filipino households is recommended.

The Republic of Ireland has experienced difficulty in recruiting nurses to both acute and long-term care settings, including intellectual disability. Many health care providers have looked outside Ireland for nurses to provide services guaranteed under national health strategies. This article describes a small-scale study undertaken in a large service provider following the employment of a large number of Filipino nurses. The aim was to explore the expectations and experiences of a sample of 10 Filipino nurses working in Ireland for at least 3 months. A qualitative approach using a phenomenological philosophy was adopted. Data were collected using focus group discussion followed by seven individual interviews, and analysed using a framework described by Moustakas. Five themes emerged: infrastructure; expectation versus experience; understanding of intellectual disability; education; and the role of the family. The study highlights the Filipino nurses’ expressed need for more accurate and relevant information during recruitment in the Philippines.

This article analyzes the distinct ways in which public walls of silence continue to surround the absence of labor rights and benefits for foreign female domestic workers in the receiving country of Malaysia. Key state and nonstate actors involved in regulating and/or encouraging Filipina and Indonesian female domestic workers’ migration to, and employment in, Malaysia are identified. It is argued that the actions and perceptions of labor-sending and receiving state officials, middle-class employers, and representatives from private domestic employment agencies have had the effect of representing Filipina and Indonesian female domestic workers respectively as economic soldiers, criminal-prostitutes and pariahs, girl-slaves, and/or commodities. Taken individually and collectively, such representations obscure the fact that foreign female domestic workers are workers who ought to be protected by labor legislation.

This research aims to analyze the trends in youth education and work outcomes before and after the implementation of the kindergarten to grade 12 (K-12) Basic Education Reform, focusing on three broad outcomes: (1) in education, (2) in employment, or (3) not in employment, education or training (NEET). It determines certain characteristics associated with each of these outcomes by employing multinomial logistic regression analysis. The study finds that although the overall likelihood of being in education has increased after the reform, certain groups, particularly disadvantaged ones, still have higher probabilities of being in employment or NEET rather than continuing their education. Furthermore, after the reform, young men from disadvantaged groups have a higher probability of being NEET. Albeit minimal, this merits investigation and monitoring in the future, as it may worsen inequalities.

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between various factors and self-perceived transformational leadership among a sample of Filipino nurse managers (NMs). BACKGROUND Transformational leadership plays a crucial role in promoting positive outcomes in healthcare settings, particularly for NMs. Understanding the factors that influence NMs' self-perceived transformational leadership is essential for improving leadership practices and enhancing organizational effectiveness. METHODS A cross-sectional research design was used to collect data from 260 NMs using standardized measures. RESULTS Employment status, the number of units managed, the type of hospital employment, psychological distress, and job satisfaction were factors that significantly influenced their leadership perceptions. CONCLUSION By addressing the identified factors, nursing organizations can create an environment that promotes effective leadership practices, ultimately enhancing patient outcomes, staff satisfaction, and overall organizational performance.

To help explain variation in Asian immigrant women’s employment, we examine the association between women’s employment and the presence and characteristics of adult extended household members for seven Asian immigrant groups: Chinese, Korean, Asian Indian, Pakistani, Filipina, Vietnamese, and Japanese. Using the American Community Survey 2009-2011 pooled data, we find that married, first-generation Asian immigrant women’s employment rates are higher when they live with parents or parents-in-law. Furthermore, hampered by housework and care work, these women apparently receive some support in particular from female extended adults providing child care assistance—especially in families with young children. On the other hand, we find a negative association between the presence of disabled adults and employment, but only for Koreans, and employed extended adults’ support varies across nationality groups. Variations in these dynamics across Asian groups suggest the need for further study.

Purpose Every year, 311,000 women die of cervical cancer globally, a disease which is preventable and treatable. Pap-testing should be part of a comprehensive approach to tackling cervical cancer; however, barriers to pap-testing do exist and migration may present additional barriers. In 2018, 2.3 million overseas Filipino workers were recorded and uptake of pap-testing for this group is low. The study aims to understand barriers and enablers to screening for overseas Filipino workers, which is essential to improve uptake of pap-testing for this population. Design/methodology/approach Embedded in a mixed-methods study, an exploratory qualitative study was conducted with Web-based, in-depth interviews (N = 8) with female overseas Filipino workers, mostly domestic workers, based in Kuwait, Qatar, Singapore and Hong Kong. Results were analysed using thematic analysis. A socio-ecological conceptual framework was used to explore barriers to uptake of pap-testing. Findings Barriers to pap-testing were cognitive factors, such as limited knowledge and fear of the outcome of pap-testing, as well as cultural and structural barriers. Findings revealed structural contexts not conducive to pap-testing, including difficulty navigating the health-care system, poverty, difficult employment circumstances and the overriding need to provide financially for family and children in the Philippines. Originality/value This study explored barriers to pap-testing with a hard-to-reach group, who are underrepresented in the literature. Barriers to pap-testing were embedded in structural barriers, resulting in health inequalities. Host and sending countries benefit from overseas Filipino workers and have a responsibility to care for their health and well-being, and should strive to tackle these structural factors.

Many Filipino migrant workers (overseas Filipino workers) in their status as adult learners struggle in learning the local language of their host countries to native-like proficiency level. With the aim of establishing a second language (L2) acquisition pattern that may be useful in designing responsive adult training and welfare programs, this study examines how these workers acquire their L2s and what factors influence their rate and success in L2 learning. Utilizing mixed methods research design with 15 overseas Filipino workers as samples who learned various local languages in 10 different host countries, this study reveals that immersion and actual use of the target language in authentic communicative situations can make language acquisition easier. Findings of this study also confirm that instrumental and integrative motivation coupled with strong target language (TL) community support can make L2 learning faster, while old age and non-necessity of the L2 at work can make the whole process slower. In terms of communication strategies, findings show that syntactic avoidance is the most common communication strategy used, followed by direct appeal to authority (native speakers) and use of gestures, facial expressions, and translation tools. As foreign workers, their motivational orientations in learning their L2 are for employment, cultural understanding, and cultural integration. Implications of these findings are discussed in relation to second language teaching among adult language learners and overseas workers.

Precarious employment is increasing and adversely affects health. We aimed to investigate how perception of precariousness in current employment impacts gender and migrant workers in Australia. Using cross-sectional interviews of 1292 workers born in Australia, New Zealand, India and the Philippines, data were collected on self-reported health, employment conditions and sociodemographics. Factor analysis of nine questions about perceptions of current employment revealed two dimensions, vulnerability and insecurity. Women had higher vulnerability scores (µ = 6.5 vs. µ = 5.5, t = 5.40, p-value (p) < 0.000) but lower insecurity scores (µ = 8.6 vs. µ = 9.3 t = −4.160 p < 0.0003) than men. Filipino-born workers had higher vulnerability compared with other migrant workers (µ = 6.5 vs. µ = 5.8 t = −3.47 p < 0.0003), and workers born in India had higher insecurity compared with other migrant workers (µ = 9.8 vs. µ = 8.9, t = −6.1 p < 0.0001). While the prevalence of insecurity varied by migrant status, the negative effect on health was higher for Australian-born workers than migrants. Increasing levels of vulnerability and insecurity impacted self-reported health negatively (Coefficient (Coef).0.34 p < 0.0001; Coef.0.25 p < 0.0001, respectively). The combination of high vulnerability and high insecurity had the greatest impact on health (Coef. 2.37 p = 0.002), followed by high vulnerability and moderate insecurity (Coef. 2.0 p = 0.007). Our study suggests that understanding both changes in employment conditions over time as well as knowledge of cultural patterns may offer the best chance of understanding the impact of precarious employment experiences.

Existing evidence suggests that postnatal depression is common in fathers of newborns among low- and middle-income countries because parents from this region experience socioeconomic difficulties. Common socioeconomic difficulties include educational attainment, employment status, and monthly income. Through the number of available participants, this study screened 50 new fathers coming from barangays of Cabanatuan City, Province of Nueva Ecija, Philippines. This study made use of the Becks Depression Inventory to carefully select new fathers without depression before childbirth. Remaining participants were administered Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) and Gotland Male Depression Scale (GMDS) 24–72 hours after the childbirth. From this, the researcher was left with seven new fathers who were invited for an in-depth interview. Using the role strain theory and depressive symptoms from the EPDS and GMDS, the researcher drafted a general idea of where to begin the interview. Structured questions were followed to meet the theoretical sensitivity and domains of the tools used (EPDS and GMDS). Qualitative analysis revealed FEAR among new fathers with Postnatal Depression coming from difficulties in financial responsibility, emotional responses, adaptability and role transition.

The incessant spreading of COVID-19 disease has recently been the major concern to the Filipino since January 2020. The crisis becomes uncontrollable and impacts on all walks of life in terms of their routine living, working conditions, mental health, and social interaction. As observed in the past few months, the Philippine government has attempted to deal with the transmission of infection and economic predicament. However, there has been tremendous criticism towards the government’s methods of solving the problems, and one of the controversial discussions is the inequity of offering assistance packages to socio-economic groups. This article seeks to grasp the perceptions of the Filipino middle class who are mainly excluded by the aid of the government from the COVID-19 crisis since they are misrepresented as capable of self-help and self-responsibility in the neoliberal economy. The results evidently show their responses and narratives to the crisis through dealing with behavioural and social adaptation and psychological coping strategies. In times of the pandemic with low awareness of the government, most middle-class people are still precarious because of the entire dependency on the financial system and employment security to maintain subsistence in the present and future.

Despite its Importance, “the exact course and depth of the recession in the [Philippine] Islands have never been seriously studied” (Richardson 1984:208). Indeed, studies that attempt to calculate the impact of global trade cycles, including that of the Great Depression, on the employment economies of the primate cities of Southeast Asia form a special lacuna within the generally underdeveloped literature on the economic history of Southeast Asia. This article opens both research questions by presenting a time-specific assessment of the impact of this international business contraction on important segments of the economy and society of metropolitan Manila, the capital and major port-city of the Philippines. In particular, this article focuses on the depression experience of the large Filipino bureaucratic middle class, of Filipino manual workers in commodities handling, manufacturing, and construction, and finally of the Chinese commercial sector. The article provides a first-cut disaggregation and analysis of relevant statistical data—much of it assembled here for the first time, as well as commercial reports and the contemporary press. The result is a picture of selective dislocation and hardship but one that is at once more variegated and generally less severe than anticipated.

In today's era, financial inclusion becomes an important thing for policy makers. They prioritize formulating a country's financial policies to build an inclusive financial system. The World Bank has recognized that financial inclusion covers 7 of the 17 sustainable development goals (Sustainable Development Goals). The method used in this research is panel data regression. By concluding that in terms of income, Indonesia and the Philippines show the same results where the three indicators of formal account, formal saving, and formal credit have a significant effect on income. This shows that the richer a person is, the higher the financial inclusion. Employment affects financial inclusion. Research in Indonesia and the Philippines shows the same results where work has an effect on formal accounts and formal savings. So it can be concluded that people who work have an effect on increasing financial inclusion compared to those who do not work.

Introduction: This study aimed to identify the demographic characteristics of Filipino young adult mobile gamers and determine the relationship of their risk factors to the intensity and number of areas with MSKP in order to address lack of information about their characteristics and needs. Methods: This was a descriptive cross-sectional study. Potential participants were recruited using consecutive and snowball sampling. The Maastricht Upper Extremity Questionnaire was modified (MUEQ-mod) and validated to be able to gather information on the presence of ergonomic risk factors. Pain intensity was determined by Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) and the number of painful areas was determined by modified Standardized Nordic Musculoskeletal Questionnaire (SNMQmod). Participants completed all the outcome measures. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyze the collected data. Results: There were 117 study participants with a mean age of 21 (SD=2.33). There were almost equal number of males (50.4%) and females (49.6%). Most gamers have an average gaming time of 3 – 4 hours (90%) and are students (85%). There is a significant difference in MUEQ-mod (p=0.007), NRS (p=0.039), and SNMQ (p=0.013) scores of the respondents, with employed gamers having higher scores. Game Station section of MUEQ-mod showed moderate correlation with overall SNMQ (ρ=0.48, p=0.000). All other sections in MUEQ-mod have statistically significant weak correlation with NRS and SNMQ, except for Break Time (p=0.106). Discussion: Possible link between game station-related ergonomic risk factors and MSKP cannot be established due to the potential influence of respondents’ employment status to the scores of outcome measures. Large longitudinal studies employing stratified random sampling and subgroup analysis are recommended to ascertain the correlation demonstrated in this study, and to reduce the confounding effects of employment status.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate the cases of Bangladeshi, Filipina, Nigerian, Palestinian and Pakistani migrant workers and how the frame of their work and employment in precarious, low-status/low-wage jobs affects their perceptions and practices regarding health and access to healthcare services. Design/methodology/approach Using qualitative research methodology, the analysis via in-depth interviews focuses on male Bangladeshi, Nigerian, Pakistani and Palestinian unskilled manual and textile laborers as well as street vendors, and female Filipina live-in domestic workers. Findings Migrants are entrapped in a context of isolative and exploitative working conditions, i.e., in unskilled labor, textile work, street-vending, personal services, care and domestic work, which lead them to adopt a self-perception in which healthcare and social protection are not a priority. Social implications Throughout the paper it has become clear that these precarious low-status/low-wage jobs have an important underside effect on migrants’ lives, intensifying labor and health instability and exposing migrants to employment-generating activities that do not guarantee health safety. In Greek society, the impact of migration on public health is characterized by many as a “time bomb ready to explode,” especially in urban centers. Meanwhile, the economy and particularly the informal sector of the labor market is benefiting from migrant workers. More research is needed as this mode of exploitative labor and precarious employment needs to be adequately addressed to mitigate barriers in the access of labor and healthcare rights. Originality/value Via its contribution to the sociology of migration with particular emphasis on labor healthcare, the paper provides evidence that due to their concentration in precarious, low-status/low-wage jobs migrant workers have very limited access to healthcare services. The removal of inequalities and discrimination against migrant workers in accessing healthcare services and medical care is a challenge for South European Union countries and particularly for Greece. However, in spite of this, there is no uniform policy in the management of migrants with respect to their access to health services. The paper will aid debates between policy makers and academics working on migration and inequalities due to the division of labor and health disparities, will contribute to the understanding of the perils attached to precarious, low-status/low-wage jobs and in addressing health inequalities effectively.

Recent studies have investigated dietary patterns to assess the overall dietary habits of specific populations. However, limited epidemiological research has been conducted to explore the unique dietary intakes in low and middle-income countries. This study aims to examine the dietary patterns of Filipino adults and their association with sociodemographic and lifestyle factors. A total of 10,025 adults (≥20 years old) who participated in the 2013 Philippine National Nutrition Survey were included in the analysis. Dietary patterns were derived using factor analysis of 18 food groups from the dietary survey component. Six dietary patterns were identified, namely (1) rice; (2) cereal, milk, sugar, and oil; (3) fruits and miscellaneous food; (4) fish; (5) vegetables and corn; and (6) meat and beverage. Generalized ordered logistic regression analysis indicated that the dietary patterns were associated with different factors, specifically sex, age, educational attainment, marital status, employment status, household size, wealth quintile, smoking status, alcohol consumption, and physical activity. Our findings showed distinct dietary patterns among Filipino adults that were influenced by various sociodemographic and lifestyle parameters. The results of this study have valuable public health implications and the dietary patterns generated can further be used to analyze the link between diet and health outcomes.
