Abstract

Abstract The gig economy's emergence and growth are relatively recent in the Philippines. Nevertheless, it has brought a new type of labor market, boundaryless careers, with numerous advantages or benefits and ethical quandaries or dilemmas for gig workers. This paper seeks to respond to emerging ethical issues by analyzing gig work based on algorithmic control, vulnerable employment terms, and the absence of special rights for gig workers. Incorporating an evaluative research methodology, secondary data in the form of journal articles, industry reports, and publications were gathered and examined about these ethical issues and recommendations being made. The participants' accounts show that Filipino gig workers experience precarity arising from employment categorization, lack of access to social protection, and severe financial precarity deepened by algorithmic management. However, it should be noted that gig work as an arrangement is often decentralized and fluid, and the workers can still rarely escape instability and low-income or income volatility. The study suggests implementing and enacting new legislative measures based on EU recommendations and suggestions to safeguard gig economy workers and establish ethical standards or guidelines for employment agreements in the Philippines. The primary proposals include legalizing labor relations in the context of gig work, developing technological and digital skills, and raising appropriate compensation. With these findings, the current study emphasizes and highlights the importance of legislative change for gig workers' rights and the equitable and fair nature of labor relationships in the growing gig economy. Keywords: Gig economy, boundaryless careers, ethical issues, labor rights, Philippine labor market. Abstrak Das Aufkommen und das Wachstum der Gig-Economy sind auf den Philippinen relativ neu. Nichtsdestotrotz hat sie eine neue Art von Arbeitsmarkt hervorgebracht, nämlich grenzenlose Karrieren, mit zahlreichen Vorteilen und ethischen Fragen oder Dilemmas für Gig-Arbeiter. In diesem Beitrag wird versucht, auf die aufkommenden ethischen Fragen zu reagieren, indem Gig Work auf der Grundlage von algorithmischer Kontrolle, ungeschützten Beschäftigungsbedingungen und dem Fehlen von Sonderrechten für Gig Worker analysiert wird. Mithilfe einer evaluativen Forschungsmethodik wurden Sekundärdaten in Form von Zeitschriftenartikeln, Branchenberichten und Veröffentlichungen gesammelt und auf diese ethischen Fragen und Empfehlungen hin untersucht. Aus den Berichten der Teilnehmer geht hervor, dass philippinische Gigworker aufgrund der Einstufung der Beschäftigung, des fehlenden Zugangs zu sozialem Schutz und der großen finanziellen Unsicherheit, die durch das algorithmische Management noch verschärft wird, unter Prekarität leiden. Es ist jedoch anzumerken, dass die Gig-Arbeit als Arrangement oft dezentralisiert und fließend ist, und die Arbeitnehmer können dennoch selten der Instabilität und den Schwankungen der niedrigen Einkommen oder der Einkommen entkommen. Die Studie schlägt die Umsetzung und Verabschiedung neuer gesetzlicher Maßnahmen auf der Grundlage von EU-Empfehlungen und -Vorschlägen vor, um Gig-Economy-Beschäftigte zu schützen und ethische Standards oder Richtlinien für Arbeitsverträge auf den Philippinen festzulegen. Zu den wichtigsten Vorschlägen gehören die Legalisierung von Arbeitsbeziehungen im Kontext von Gig-Work, die Entwicklung technologischer und digitaler Fähigkeiten und die Erhöhung einer angemessenen Vergütung. Mit diesen Ergebnissen unterstreicht die aktuelle Studie die Bedeutung gesetzlicher Änderungen für die Rechte von Gig-Arbeitern und die gerechte und faire Gestaltung von Arbeitsverhältnissen in der wachsenden Gig-Economy. Stichworte: Gig-Economy, grenzenlose Karrieren, ethische Fragen, Arbeitsrechte, philippinischer Arbeitsmarkt.

Abstract

As of this date, the global halal economy is significantly growing. The Philippines is one of those countries where the Muslim population is significantly increasing, which also resulted in a heightened demand for Halal-certified products and services in the industry. Halal certification is prominent because it undergoes a process where they certify products and services. This is also significant to non-Muslim consumers who embrace halal as one of their lifestyles. With this growing significance and potential economic viability, opportunities has opened for businesses to invest in halal certification. However, despite the significant growth, potential halal business owners still struggle from participating in this growing market due to the challenges they face, particularly in micro and small sector. A primary study found out the common barriers that are usually encountered and most of it are drawn from inconsistent interpretations by different certifying bodies. This study aims to address these challenges by offering recommendations to policymakers such as the halal-certifying bodies about the difficulties these businesses encounter. By addressing these challenges, the study seeks to help business owners recognize the competitive advantage of getting halal certification, given that not all are aware of its benefits. Furthermore, this study will help

Abstract

Recycling stands out as a widely embraced waste management strategy globally, exerting a transformative influence on resource preservation, pollution mitigation, and the curbing of landfill waste. This research seeks to enhance our comprehension of sustainable recycling methodologies by delving into economic dynamics, environmental considerations, technological progress, policy structures, and social factors within the realm of recycling endeavors. The objective is to furnish crucial insights for governmental bodies, corporations, and communities embarking on their sustainability journeys. A comprehensive exploration was conducted utilizing reputable academic databases such as Google Scholar, ScienceDirect, and ResearchGate. Rigorous quantitative analysis was employed to amalgamate the amassed data, scrutinizing trends, patterns, and the interplay between recycling and its repercussions across various domains, including economics, technology, and the environment. The findings pertaining to economic dynamics reveal a robust correlation between recycling initiatives and factors such as employment rates, compensation levels, and tax revenues. Notably, there are discernible inter-sectoral variations, with ferrous metals leading in terms of job creation, wages, and tax contributions. Advancements in technology present opportunities for waste reduction, efficient sorting, and the manufacturing of new products, all of which play a pivotal role in fostering environmentally conscious waste management practices. The study underscores the significance of well-defined policy and regulatory frameworks in the realm of recycling, with a specific focus on the situation in the Philippines.

Abstract

This study aims to quantify and measure the relationship of Entrepreneurial Identity Aspiration and Self-Efficacy to Entrepreneurial Behavior of the working class of Davao City where the culture has strong emphasis on working and providing for the family. The data is collected from 150 working people in Davao City through the e-questionnaires using Snowball sampling. Using a correlation-descriptive research design and multiple linear regression technique, the undertaking reveals that both Entrepreneurial Identity Aspiration and Self-Efficacy have a statistically significant impact on Entrepreneurial Behavior. However, the study also identified that Self-efficacy has a higher degree of correlation and effect towards Entrepreneurial Behavior. Furthermore, the results on Entrepreneurial Identity Aspiration show different results compared to relative studies presented. The results assume that even with the desire and aspiration to take an entrepreneurial role in the future, a person who is lacking on self-efficacy will not engage on entrepreneurial activities.
