“…According to Tanner et al (2015;23), a person's ability to maintain and increase their standard of living in the face of such external stressors is called livelihood resilience. It is significant to note that such stressors can be diminished through adaptive coping strategies to attain a better quality of life (Oleś, 2015;Padios et al, 2022). When a system is resilient, it can absorb disruptions without altering its structure or function while retaining development choices in the face of such changes.…”

With the onset of the pandemic, small-scale fishermen (SSF) in the country have become even more vulnerable to multiple adverse stressors. It is important to remember that fisher households have minimal assets, and their ability to mitigate the effects of crises and shocks is restricted. This study aims to enhance our understanding of livelihoods by using the idea of resilience as an analytical tool in examining the different aspects of fisherfolks' adaptive systems during the pandemic and the role of the government in bolstering their livelihood resiliency. This qualitative study utilized a multimethod case study design, and for the data analysis, I utilized Clarke and Braun's six phases of thematic analysis. Four major themes were uncovered in the study: assets and livelihood resiliency; livelihood challenges and stressors in the pandemic; SSF with adaptive strategies vs. without adaptive strategies; and Government's role in SSF livelihood resiliency. The study produced findings on resiliency and adaptive strategies pertaining to livelihoods in the context of a pandemic. The study found that SSF who diversified during the pandemic were more robust in their livelihood than SSF who did not have any adaptation techniques applied during the pandemic.

To remain competitive in the higher education market, Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) have to provide quality services to their clientele (Legcevic, 2014; Guaimalon et al., 2022). These services must be aligned with the mission, vision, and long-term goals of the university, which include employee productivity and service sustainability. This study sought to assess the university support personnel’s performance for institutional progress and students’ satisfaction. It also determined the relationship between the support personnel’s profile, in terms of sex and length of service, and their performance. The descriptive-correlational design was applied in this inquiry wherein all 97 regular support personnel were the respondents and were evaluated by their supervisor and two randomly selected senior co-workers. A standardized questionnaire was utilized to gather data on the performance of the support personnel. Weighted Mean, Spearman’s Rank Order Correlation Coefficients, and Chi-Square Test were used as statistical tools. The data revealed that the performance of the support personnel “exceeds expectations” in the following areas: work quantity, work quality, work relationships, work skills, job knowledge, and time record. The results further indicated that the work performance in terms of extension work is classified as “meeting the expectations.” Moreover, the study found that the support personnel’s length of service is inversely related to their work performance and that female personnel performed better at work than their male counterparts.

As an integral component of the university's wellness initiatives, a financial wellness program is designed to support and enhance the financial health of the employees. In order to improve and strengthen this, this study was conducted to identify the level of financial practices of Foundation University employees and how they correlate with their extent of investments. Data from 191 regular and full-time probationary employees from Foundation University were collected via a descriptive-correlational study using a validated questionnaire. Percent, weighted mean, multiple linear regression analysis, Kruskall Wallis Test, and MannWhitney U test were used by the researcher to treat the data. The study revealed that the majority of the employees demonstrate strong financial practices in managing their income, such as budgeting, tracking expenses, and avoiding debt. Nevertheless, there is room for improvement in terms of establishing emergency funds among a minority of employees. It was also found that employees demonstrate strong expenditure and savings practices. In terms of investment, it was revealed that employees engage in thorough research and assess risks before making decisions. They generally agree on regularly reviewing the returns on their investments, investing in bank products, and seeking advice from financial advisors to a moderate extent. Furthermore, it was found that their investment behavior is considered prudent and sound. A positive correlation between positive financial practices and higher investment levels was also manifested. Recommendations include establishing a financial clinic wherein they will offer workshops, training, and sessions focused on financial literacy topics, as well as inviting financial experts to assist employees in crafting their financial plans. Moreover, organizing a cooperative among employees is also recommended.
