SE 106-J1

Topic 1: Gender Sensitivity in the Employment World: Gender sensitization is


important because representation is important. Representation of a person
and community not only advocates equality but also adds a sense of
inclusion to the previously marginalized community. For a healthy
performance-oriented culture, organizations need a right mix of talent which
is not bound by gender. In a world where accountability has become
important now more than ever, organizations only have today to make the
changes that count, as tomorrow they won’t be able to hide under the guise
of ignorance. Every member of an organization seeks to learn and grow in
their place of work, and an insensitive workplace not only hampers that but
also becomes a hostile workplace. Gender sensitization is extremely
important as it helps employees feel valued and cared for within the
organization. Lastly for the betterment of the society, organizations have an
ethical responsibility in shaping the current structures by breaking the
previous norms. Resource Speaker: Lilia Z. Boyles, Ph.D. CSU, GAD Director

Topic 2: Orientation to Overseas Employment: As the demand and


opportunities of working abroad are increasing, so are the concerns about
illegal recruitment. The Philippine Overseas Employment Administration
(POEA) is a government body responsible for monitoring and regulating
private recruitment agencies in the Philippines. Typically, the POEA ensures
that all job opportunities overseas available to all Filipinos are legitimate.
Their main purpose is to protect all applicants and Overseas Filipino Workers
or OFWs from illegal recruiters or employers by creating and implementing
policies that endeavor the best interest of the OFWs. It helps potential
candidates to determine and understand the advantages and
disadvantages of working abroad. It clarifies the guidelines and legal
procedures for overseas job applications, required documents, and fees for
overseas job applications, and even provides tips to candidates to help them
avoid becoming a victim of illegal recruitment. Resource Speaker: Ritchel M.
Butao, POEA-Caraga, Coordinator
Topic 3: Work Ethics, Powerful Resume and Power Dressing: To be ethical at the
workplace means that you respect, care and love hard work and consider it a
valuable quality. Strong work ethic means you’re also dependable,
productive, collaborative, and passionate. People that exhibit the trait don’t
slack, leave work unfinished, or complain about every little snag that impedes
their process. You don’t have to explicitly and deliberately demonstrate a
strong work ethic it is perceived that you have it when you show attention to
detail, you’re learning fast, communicate well with your colleagues, or go
through the to-do list diligently. If you have a strong work ethic, you’re more
likely to meet organizational goals and put your best foot forward every day.
Hiring people with a strong work ethic is critical for many companies to
succeed. Resource Speaker: Jo-Ann E. Cenas, Provincial Government
Department Head-PHRMO

Topic 4: Crossing Over: Mental Health Preparedness from School to


Workplace: Mental health services embedded within school systems can
create a continuum of integrative care that improves both mental health and
educational attainment for children. To strengthen this continuum, and for
optimum child development, a reconfiguration of education and mental
health systems to aid implementation of evidence-based practice might be
needed. Integrative strategies that combine classroom-level and student-
level interventions have much potential. A robust research agenda is needed
that focuses on system-level implementation and maintenance of
interventions over time. Both ethical and scientific justifications exist for
integration of mental health and education: integration democratises access
to services and, if coupled with use of evidence-based practices, can
promote the healthy development of children. Resource Speaker: Dr. Maria
Olivia D., Bating, Ed.M., MD, RGC, CSU, Retainer Counseling Supervisor

Topic 5: Financial Literacy: Everything in our lives is affected by money. From


our daily expenses to our children’s tuition fees, building a retirement fund to
saving up for a much-needed vacation, it is virtually impossible to live life
without money. Having a strong foundation of financial literacy is important
because it gives you the knowledge you need to manage your money wisely.
Without financial literacy, you may be making the wrong decisions regarding
how you save or invest your money. You’ll need to understand how finances
work so you can avoid incurring debt when using your credit card, take out a
loan on your first car, and grow your savings through investments. Financial
literacy also enables you to achieve your financial goals, whatever these may
be. In fact, financial literacy helps you determine what these goals are in the
first place. Financial literacy helps you manage your money wisely, make
sound financial decisions, and achieve financial stability in life. Resource
Speaker: Glizriel Rose Z. Quijada, Bank Officer II

Topic 6: Orientation on Philhealth: Illnesses do not only pose harm to one’s


health but also affect the finances of an individual and the entire family. Do
you have any idea how your parents manage the health care expenses of
your family? How about the different sectors of our society specially those
who belong to the lower income segment? How are they able to cope with the
financial demands of ill health and sickness specially if there is surge of
illnesses and diseases that easily spread and are costly. Resource Speaker:
Maria Estella L. De Villa, Social Insurance Officer II
