“…The item "secure environment "is also at the range of satisfied as this reveals how the company provides protection and security for the workers to become productive.

It is said that the most motivated workers can be found in the Banking and Insurance Industry. The study looks into the motivational factors affecting the satisfaction and performance of twenty workers from the three FICO Branches in the province of Nueva Ecija in the Philippines. Through the use of mixed methods of research and self-made questionnaire designed to elicit the responses of the bank workers, the study found out that most of them are college graduates, are very satisfied with the offerings of the company, have been rendering their services for less than five years, and performs Above Expectations based on the company’s recent evaluation. Based on the findings, it is suggested that: The motivational factors identified be reinforced for the worker’s benefits; The management should consider conducting a regular survey to serve as platform where workers can voice out their needs and opinions for the further improvement of the workplace and existing policies, and to further uphold the workers’ welfare; and Let the workers organize informal programs for stress management, recreations, trainings that they deem fit and necessary with due consideration to available resources and existing policies. Since the study is limited to the FICO Bank Branches in Nueva Ecija, it is also suggested that similar study be conducted in other locales and other bank branches.

“…This finding is similar with other previous studies which found that their participants have a high knowledge of factors that constitutes sexual harassment (Apaak and Sarpong, 2015). In contrast with our finding, some studies stated average knowledge of sexual harassment among their respondents (Gabriel and Panahon, 2017;Aditi et al, 2016) while some participants displayed a low knowledge of sexual harassment (Das and Rath, 2015). Nevertheless, with the high level of knowledge of sexual harassment exhibited among the Nigerian legal professionals, the subjects were neither secured nor prevented from being sexually harassed.…”

Sexual Harassment has been a habitual phenomenon among legal professionals. Consequently, "suffering and smiling" is the concealed solution to this challenge due to the importance of livelihood and career development. This study seeks to examine the prevalence of sexual harassment within the Nigerian legal profession, whether there is need for the victims to be protected and provided with legal structure to confidently report issue of sexual harassment, and whether there is a need for domestic law for the society. Empirical and descriptive research methods were adopted, 561 Nigerian lawyers were surveyed using a structured questionnaire. Data were collected and analyzed using frequencies, chi-square, chart, regression and correlation analysis. It revealed that there is no adequate social structure for addressing sexual harassment and prolonged exposure to sexual harassment has disguised its true effect on the victims. Thus, there is a need for professional regulation to combat sexual harassment among the lawyers.

“…The individual includes personal safety measures against the peer and superiors while institutional strategies comprise policies and procedures as well as formal training of the employee. Similarly, Sales and Krause (2017) note that prevention of sexual violence centered on students are essential, however In the Philippines, Gabriel (2017) notes that efforts to increase the consciousness of the students must be strengthened to ascertain their safety. Hence, laws do not fully prevent sexual harassment instead, there must be an institutional standard laid down by both private and public schools.…”

Sexual harassment is an issue that happens ubiquitously in schools committed verbally or physically with anyone as victim regardless of gender. With the occurrence of such crime, this study assessed the students’ perception on sexual harassment, physical, verbal or mixed, the legal methodologies and policy employed by the concerned schools in implementing the different programs and instructions, and the characterization of the nature of work and the working conditions of different participating institutions. This study utilized descriptive-quantitative research design using a purposive sampling technique. Data were analyzed using frequency and percentage, and average weighted mean. Results disclosed that students unanimously agree on sexual harassment in various forms but apparently not aware verbal and non-verbal acts. The results further showed that students rarely get educational information about sexual harassment from their parents and institutions but noted the importance of faculty, administration, and student cooperation to prevent it. Hence, there are students who experienced incidents of sexual harassment in school premises but majority of them did not report it due to fear and culture of victim blaming. Similarly, the majority of the respondents confirm there are no programs, regulations, and instrumentalities to prevent sexual harassment in their school. With the alarming results, the study developed a training module to be implemented as an extension project to capacitate students and help institutions draft a mechanism in handling such cases.
