Abstract

This study aimed to assess the level of awareness among recent graduates of Northern Mindanao State College (NMSC) and Tangub City Global College (TCGC) towards the services offered by the Public Employment Service Office (PESO) of Tangub City. Specifically, the study investigates awareness of referral and placement, labor market information, employment coaching, and job fair programs. A quantitative research design was employed, utilizing a modified questionnaire administered to 466 recent graduates selected through purposive sampling. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, particularly weighted mean. The findings revealed that while the respondents were aware of PESO's referral and placement, employment coaching and career counseling, and job fair services, their awareness of labor market information was relatively low. These insights highlight the need for PESO to enhance its information dissemination strategies to improve understanding, particularly regarding labor market trends and opportunities.

Abstract

This study was conducted to determine the reasons for the non-participation of members of the association's programs and activities. Using a descriptive-qualitative approach and semi-structured interviews with 20 non-participating members from four barangays, this study identified key reasons for non-participation, including familial responsibilities, political divisions, poor leadership, interpersonal conflict, and perceived unfair distribution of benefits. The analysis revealed that familial responsibilities, political issues, and leadership deficiencies were the most significant barriers to participation. Moreover, the study also identified factors that could encourage the members to actively participate in the association's programs and activities, including providing financial assistance, celebrating women's month activities, providing livelihood programs, and the wide dissemination of information by the officers in charge. The study suggests that Women's Associations must improve leadership and communication that will foster inclusivity and ensure equitable resource distribution.
