| Summary, etc. | The study is entitled "Overseas Employment as Perceived by Selected Overseas Filipino Workers of Barangay Sirawan, Toril, Davao City". It aims to answer (1) reasons for the decision to work abroad and it focuses on the perceived benefits derived from overseas employment with reference to the socio-economic condition of the OFWs and the (2) problems encountered by OFW in overseas employment. This study is a descriptive survey research with forty-four informants. The researcher used the snowball technique as well as simple frequencies and percentage in the analysis of the data. The study shows the following findings: (1) the poor condition of the people because lack of jobs will likely serve as catalyst that a person will go abroad; (2) the good opportunities that the host country will provide is one of the ?push? factors why overseas employment occurs; (3) positive things happen in the family in terms of the socio-economic condition such as acquisition of investment and stable jobs and income; (4) improvement on personal growth as well as on social status in the community can be observed; (5) unlike before, overseas employment, the OFW families are now able to have access to basic services and amenities, such as in terms of health, education, etc.; (6) however, overseas workers also experience difficulties and problems in overseas employment. Nonetheless, the OFWs of Barangay Sirawan think that the positive things brought by overseas employment far outweigh whatever problems then encountered in working abroad. |
