Abstract

The purpose of this study is to determine varied responses on socio-demographic profile of couple DepEd teachers in the new normal in terms of age, highest educational attainment, school attainment, position, school designation, salary grade level, take-home pay, years in service, number of children, years of being married, family size and another source of income, exploring different lived experiences of couple DepEd teachers along childcare/dependent care, support from family, self – management, life expectations, life satisfactions, workplace support, workload, financial management, work expectations and work satisfactions and recommend a policy framework that can be suggested in responding to the work life balance of couple DepEd teachers in the new normal. This research is focused on the Province of Masbate, specifically in the municipality of Mandaon. Five couple teachers who are teaching in public schools were pre – selected. The study employed qualitative method of research, specifically phenomenological analysis to gather the lived experiences of five couple DepEd teachers. A descriptive phenomenological approach to inquiry revealed that socio-demographic profile of couple DepEd teachers in the new normal is varied but related with each other in terms of age, educational attainment, position, designation, salary grade level, take-home pay, years in the service, and years of being married. Lived experiences of couple DepEd teachers in the new standard can be divided into work (workplace support, workload, financial management, and work expectations) and life (childcare, support from family, self–management, life expectations, life satisfaction, and financial management). Work and life experiences are factors that affect the work life balance of couple DepEd teachers. The researcher recommends a policy rooted on work and life satisfaction which are needed as measures for a right work life balance in the new normal.

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic is a unique and rare occurrence in the whole world. It compelled colleges to close their doors and transition entirely to distance learning. It posed many challenges in the academe with the abrupt change in the educational landscape. Hence, the study was conceived on determining answers in a 15-question closed-question from a Plan International survey in which women college students were asked about their understanding of the COVID-19 pandemic and its effects on their life and access to education, welfare, economic security, livelihoods, and access to technology. It was found out that the respondents knew little about COVID- 19, it made a major change in their lives which led to huge effect to their access to their future plans. However, based from their responses on the qualitative side of the study they still have hopes and aspiration despite the pandemic situation. As a result, its impact on female college students, who confront special vulnerabilities, must be recognized, and their experiences and perspectives must be incorporated in the institution's COVID-19 pandemic preparedness processes.

Abstract

Work-life balance is a cycle of one's life experiences which means satisfaction with work, family, and self. The study explored the self-representation of married female teachers with their work-life balance in Philippine public schools during pandemics through qualitative research using metaphorical analysis. The participants' metaphors of their work-life balance were identified in the interview, such as being like a drained cellphone, melting candle, strong and big tree, spider, COVID-19 vaccine, and season. Also, several studies revealed that they juggle multiple roles during pre-pandemic. Hence, their experiences in terms of work-life balance have advantages and disadvantages during the pandemic, which may worsen or lighten the current roles they have. Thus, it is recommended to raise more awareness of women's work-life balance in their organizations or agencies. Also, strengthening Republic Act 9710 in the workplace is highly recommended.
