The effect of employee motivation on work performance of employees working from home
type: item
description: The coronavirus pandemic of 2019 (COVID19) has forced most employees to work from home. This study aimed to determine the effect of employee motivation on the work performance of employees working from home. The method used for this study is the quantitative design of research. The data was gathered from the 100 workers currently working on a work from home (WFH) setup or those who have experienced working from home randomly selected by the researchers. Using a researcher-made questionnaire encoded in Google form responses were gathered from 100 randomly chosen respondents. Data were processed using frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation, Pearson r and Multiple Linear Regression analysis. The assumptions on linearity, independence, normality and homoscedasticity were established. Findings revealed that employee motivation and work performance have a strong significant relationship. Work condition and job security had a significant influence on work performance. This implies that motivation is essential in improving employees’ performance. Researchers recommend that management should provide their employees with continuous support and career growth and development improvement programs. The study may also aim to explore other indicators that they can test to the work performance to improve the model developed in the study.

Jose Maria College Tracer Study of Business Administration graduates
type: item
description: This study aims to examine employment discrepancies, underemployment, and promotional opportunities among Bachelor of Science in Business Administration (BSBA) graduates. Utilizing a descriptive research design, the study evaluates the employability and employment status of graduates in line with guidelines provided by the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) for conducting tracer studies. Survey questionnaires were distributed among a cohort of 110 graduates, achieving a response rate from 59 participants, predominantly females. Findings indicate that 69.5% of the respondents, who graduated between 2010 and 2016 with a major in Financial Management, are gainfully employed in regular positions primarily as accounting clerks, administrative and accounting staff, bank tellers, and order placers. Furthermore, 59.32% of the respondents expressed high satisfaction with their current employment. Skills fostered during their education, such as the ability to work independently or collaboratively and under pressure, were deemed highly beneficial and relevant to their professional roles. Notably, while 93.22% of the graduates expressed a desire to pursue further studies, various constraints hindered their ability to do so.

Factors affecting the academic performance of Bachelor of Science in Business Administration students on Introductory Accounting
type: item
description: The objective of this study is to explore the factors affecting the academic performance of business administration students in introductory accounting. These factors include teaching methods, learning facilities, and study habits. The researchers conducted a survey to thirty first- and second-year Business Administration students. The researchers used simple random sampling to give equal chance to each member of the population to be selected. The survey questionnaire identifies the respondent’s profile and the indicators for the study’s independent (which are the factors) and dependent (which is the Academic Performance) variables. Based on the results, most of the respondents are female second year BSBA students, who graduated with a non-ABM senior high program. Among the factors studied, both study habits and learning facilities moderately affect the students’ academic performance. Thus, the factor which would greatly affect the student academic performance is the teaching method.

Level of awareness of teachers on the TRAIN Law
type: item
description: The Filipino population demonstrates a substantial understanding of land taxation laws, aiding them in mitigating the challenges faced by responsible taxpayers. This study aims to enhance awareness among Filipinos regarding the benefits of President Duterte's priority program, particularly the Tax Reform for Acceleration and Inclusion (TRAIN) law. The TRAIN law is designed to support the Filipino populace, especially those in poverty, by funding the Duterte administration's 10-point socio-economic agenda to achieve inclusive economic growth. The study focuses on assessing the awareness of selected public high school teachers in Davao City about the TRAIN law's provisions, implementation, goals, and objectives. Utilizing a descriptive design and survey questionnaires, the research highlights the varying levels of awareness among respondents. Findings indicate a high awareness of specific provisions, while understanding of implementation and broader goals remains moderate. The study concludes that while the TRAIN law offers significant benefits, there is a need for improved information dissemination to ensure comprehensive public understanding. The researchers recommend conducting more seminars and orientations to educate the public, particularly educators, about the new tax system. Additionally, future research should expand the respondent scope and explore innovative methods to enhance awareness and understanding of the TRAIN law and its regulations.
