In the Philippine setting, Employment is a very timely topic especially these days
that the unemployment rate in the Philippines from January 2016 to January 2017
increased to almost 6.6% of the whole population according to the report of the National
Economic and Development Authority. This could still be subdivided into those people
who have irregular jobs, those who still try to seek for employment and those who do
not. The government had supplied the community with numerous projects regarding
employment, like livelihood programs and job openings inside and even outside the
6
country, yet a massive number of Filipinos still find it hard to stay and keep a regular and
decent job. This is mainly the reason why this research is significant not just to the
researchers themselves, but also to the citizens and the government, since this study
tries to seek for answers and reasons of how various employment status could affect

solutions to ameliorate societal problems in terms of employment. This could also be for

The main subjects concerned by the study are the employment status in terms of

According to a study, Moods and Emotions can also affect the satisfaction of an

also lead to the changes in inflation rate. Inflation rate is the purchasing power of a
specific currency, so if a person sustains a job for a long period of time and gets almost
the same amount of financial reward, and inflation in the economy goes up, the

This chapter presents the findings based on the data gathered. It was designed
to study the effects of employment status to the job satisfaction of employed workers in
Barangay 7, Guadalupe, Lipa City, Batangas. Relative date was presented and analyzed
using descriptive and inferential statistics. A total of Thirty-four questionnaire were
retrieved from 40 respondents.

In the given table majority of the respondents are graduates holding a masters or
doctorate degree. Due to increased stiff competition among potential employees and the
global economic crisis, job searching has become an uphill task for many people during
recent years. A study conducted in 2015 by Times Higher Education revealed that there
has been a tremendous increase in the number of master’s courses being taught. The
findings also showed that employers are adding more value to postgraduates.

The given table shows that majority of the respondents agree that they are
satisfied with the variety of job responsibilities and their independence associated with
their own work roles. Based on the study “Embracing employee freedom in the

have higher self-confidence and are more likely to be satisfied with their working
environment.

The given table shows that majority of the respondents agree that they are

To summarize the findings, most of the employed workers who have participated
as respondents of this study are mostly in their early adulthood and midlife, which as
expected because according to Tulao (2015), the labor force of an economy starts at the
age of fifteen, and actively plays at the age of 21. Most of the respondents are satisfied

aspects of Employment Status, Work opportunities is the only one who does not have a

current employers try to adapt to different economic changes in order for them to retain

Mahal na respondente,
Pagbati ng Kapayapaan!
Kami po ay mga mag-aaral ng ABM strand, seksyong A12-02 at nasa Senior High
School ng De La Salle Lipa. Sa kasalukuyan, kami po ay nagsasagawa ng isang
pananaliksik tungkol sa “Relationship of Employment Status to the Job Satisfaction of
Employed Workers in Brgy. 7 Guadalupe, Lipa City, Batangas” na naglalayong malaman
ang pananaw ng mga residente ukol sa nasabing pamagat. Ang gawain ding pong ito
ay bahagi ng pagtugon sa mga kahingian ng kursong Practical Research 2. Upang
makapangalap po ng mga datos at impormasyon na kinakailangan sa aming
pananaliksik, ang inyo pong Barangay Guadalupe ang napili po namin upang isagawa
ang nabanggit na pananaliksik.
Kaugnay po nito, kami ay humihingi ng pahintulot sa inyo upang kayo ay maging isa sa
mga respondente ng pag-aaral na ito. Ang inyo pong malugod na pakikilahok at
kooperasyon sa pamamagitan ng paglalaan ng ilang minuto at matapat na pagsagot sa
pamamagitan ng sarbey gamit ang talatanungan (questionnaire) ay napakalaki pong
tulong sa ikakatagumpay ng pag-aaral na ito. Ang lahat po ng mga datos at
impormasyon na makakalap mula sa mga respondente ay pagsasamasamahin,
aanalisahin at susuriin upang masagot ang mga suliranin sa pag-aaral na ito at makamit
ang mga inihanay na mga layunin.
50
Marami pong salamat sa inyo. Kami po ay umaasa sa inyong positibong pagtugon sa
liham na ito. Pagpalain po nawa tayo ng Poong Maykapal.
Binigyang Pansin:
