<summary type="text">Work from home scheme: A phenomenological study
Traviña, Michelle Ann P.
This paper titled “Work from Home Scheme: A Phenomenological Study” was conducted to understand the lived experiences of employees from one of the offices of a Provincial Government in Iloilo in adapting the work from home scheme during pandemic. The study was conducted from January 2023 to December 2024 using phenomenological techniques of qualitative research. Primary data were gathered from seven (7) participants through the conduct of the interview using semi-structured interview guide. The emerging themes are as follows: (1) Navigating Blurred Boundaries in Remote Work Spaces, (2) Confronting Harsh Realities of Remote Work, (3) Coping to Survive the Work-from-Home Wilderness, (4) Navigating Work-Life Balance in a Home Environment, and (5) A Journey of the Resilient Self. This phenomenological study illuminates the complex, lived experiences of remote workers, highlighting the interplay between personal and professional lives during crisis. The study findings resonate with the Self Determination Theory, Boundary Theory, Conservation of Resources Theory, and Social Exchange Theory for understanding employees' experiences during remote work, emphasizing resilience, adaptability, resourcefulness, and reciprocal support from organizations, and colleagues. The findings provide implications for practice in the areas of organizational strategies, managerial strategies, and individual strategies. This phenomenological study illuminates the complex, lived experiences of remote workers, highlighting the interplay between personal and professional lives during crisis. Recommendations are advanced to the Provincial Government in Iloilo, Civil Service Commission, Employees of Government Offices, and Future research.

<summary type="text">Perceived readiness for accreditation to PRIME-HRM Level 1 of Professional Regulation Commission Region VI: A mixed method
Mamon, Loel L.
This study, which aimed to describe the perceived readiness of the Professional Regulation Commission (PRC) in Region VI for accreditation to PRIME-HRM Level 1, utilized the mixed-method, explanatory sequential design. The researcher used both quantitative and qualitative data to provide the best understanding of the research problem. The study's population of interest was ail permanent employees of PRC Region VI; hence, a total of 35 respondents were included in the conduct of the quantitative phase, and 12 participants were purposefully chosen as participants in the qualitative phase. To probe deeper into the quantitative findings, a Key informant interview (Kll) was conducted. The statistical tool used in the analysis of the data gathered was mean for the quantitative phase, and for the qualitative phase, thematic analysis was utilized in recognizing patterns and themes in the qualitative data. In the quantitative phase, the results revealed that PRC Region VI is partially ready for PRIME HRM Level I accreditation. Among the four PRIME HRM categories, two received the result "fully ready," namely recruitment, selection, and placement and performance management; HRD learning and development received the result "partially ready," and rewards and recognition received the result "not ready." As to the qualitative phase: For category 1: Recruitment, Selection, and Placement, PRC Region VI was proved to have an established procedure in the hiring and recruitment process. For category 2: Performance Management, there are areas that need improvement, though they have been proven to be fully ready. In category 3: HRD Learning and Development (L&amp;D), a lack of human resource development personnel and poor management support are the factors explaining why PRC Region VI appeared to be partially ready. Lastly, for category 4: Rewards and Recognition, due to the fact this is still under the function of the Central Office, the result was undeniably partially ready.

The over-all attitude towards government service of the respondents reveals that majority of them have a positive attitude towards government service. As to their level of work performance, fifty eight percent of the respondents demonstrated a very satisfactory level of work performance.  Respondents with satisfactory level of work performance are one third of those with very satisfactory rating. Respondents who have an outstanding level of work performance is twelve percent more than twice of those with very satisfactory rating or level of work performance.&#13;
Based on the results of the study, most DepEd-Iloilo employees have exhibited positive attitude towards government service.
