Abstract

The importance of training and development in today's competitive corporate environment is widely recognized as a necessary investment in human capital, as it is believed to enhance employee performance, increase engagement, and promote organizational agility. This study evaluated the perceived benefits of training and development in a primary cooperative in the Philippines. This study employed a descriptive-quantitative research design to assess the perceptions of 113 employees regarding the benefits of training and development, using an adopted survey questionnaire prepared in Google Forms. The distribution of questionnaires to the target respondents was conducted via electronic mail and Messenger. The data were analyzed using frequency, percentage, weighted mean, and ANOVA. The study confirmed that the cooperative's employees are predominantly young, with a slightly higher proportion of male employees, and a workforce primarily composed of rank-and-file staff who are just starting their careers at the cooperative. Regarding the benefits of training and development, employees perceived its positive impact across all dimensions, which include goal achievement, collaboration and communication, level of quality and efficiency, and personal and professional attributes. Moreover, the study revealed that there are no significant differences in the perceived benefits of training and development when employees are grouped according to their profile. Finally, the researchers proposed strategies to enhance further the perceived benefits of training and development in the primary cooperative subject. This study can serve as a valuable reference for human resource managers in designing, implementing, monitoring, and evaluating training and development programs provided to employees.

Abstract

Job satisfaction is a key area of interest for competitive organizations, as it significantly influences the retention of skilled and committed employees. This study aimed to investigate the level of job satisfaction among employees, employee retention rates, and the relationship between job satisfaction and employee retention. Additionally, it sought to identify programs and benefits that could enhance job satisfaction and retention rates. This descriptive-correlation research used a researcher-structured questionnaire distributed to 70 full-time employees of the subject government agency in the Philippines. Statistical tests, including frequency, percentage, weighted mean, and Spearman's rank correlation test were employed in the data analysis. Findings revealed that employees are satisfied with their jobs, especially when it comes to compensation, job content, promotion, supervision, and relationships with colleagues. Additionally, the study emphasized that employees are more likely to remain in the organization. Moreover, the study concluded that the level of job satisfaction exhibits a positive and strong correlation with employee retention. The study also revealed that healthcare benefits are considered a major contributor to employees’ retention among the programs and benefits that an organization can provide. Finally, this study can serve as a model for other government agencies to enhance job satisfaction and productivity among employees, thereby contributing to long-term employee retention, that benefits both employees and the organization.
