Abstract:

This study determined the level of implementation of workers’ flexible working arrangement and the extent of the worker’s productivity level in ABC Semiconductor Company. The descriptive correlational method was utilized, and the respondents were the Department Manager and Rank-and-File employees. The researcher used a survey questionnaire and a simple mean and four-point Likert scale, Pearson product moment correlation and regression analysis were used for its statistical treatment. A descriptive correlational research design was used. This study was focused on determining the significant relationship between the level of implementation of workers’ flexible working arrangement and the extent of the worker’s productivity level in ABC Semiconductor Company. Purposive random sampling was used in selecting 270 respondents comprising 30 managers and 240 rank-and-file which is 50.6% of the total population. Survey questionnaire was utilized to gather necessary data. It was subjected to validation from the experts and underwent Cronbach reliability testing. Using weighted mean, it was determined that ABC Semiconductor company evidently implemented workers’ flexible working arrangement in the Normal Operations and Development Plans. Likewise, there was a high worker’s productivity level in in ABC Semiconductor as to employees Performance against Objectives and Values-based Behavior and very high productivity level as to Attendance and Punctuality. The result revealed that implementation of workers’ flexible working arrangements was associated or connected to the extent of worker’s productivity level in terms of performance against objectives and values-based behavior. The higher the implementation of the workers’ flexible working arrangements, the higher the worker’s productivity level and vice versa. Moreover, the study showed that the implementation of Flexible Working Arrangement Specifically Development Plans has significant effect on the Workers’ productivity in terms of Values-based Behavior. The implementation of FWA was contributory to the work productivity of the employees. Proposed action plan was crafted to improve the Flexible Working Arrangement Implementation of the ABC Semiconductor company and to encourage its employees to perform their duties to their utmost ability through different programs and activities.

Keywords: flexible working arrangement, workers’ productivity, normal operations, development plans, performance against objectives, values-based behavior, attendance and punctuality
