  1. RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN GENDER AND EMPLOYMENT CONTEXTS AMONG THE GRADUATES OF BICOL UNIVERSITY By Eddie S. See and Mary Ann M. See Presented by Eddie S. See BU College of Business, Economics and Management

  2. Generally, this study sought to identify if there is a relationship between the Bicol University graduates’ gender and their scholastic circumstances and employment/ employment-relevant setting. Specifically, it sought to find out the strength and significance of relationship between the graduates‟ gender and their 1. Scholastic circumstances Course graduated Honors received Reasons for taking the course 2. Employment/employment-relevant setting Professional skills possessed Professional examinations passed Trainings/advanced studies attended Present employment status Present occupation Place of work Reasons for staying on the job Relation of first job to course Length of time of finding job Job level

  3. This study made use of secondary and content analyses as the research strategies. Its primary source of data is the output of the researcher’s CHED-BU Graduate Tracer Study Results Course taken Data show a significant relationship between the gender of the Bicol University graduates, and the course they took in college (c= 0.36). The trend displays that more males graduated from engineering, agriculture, peace and industrial technology courses while more females took the rest of the courses

  4. There is no discernible archetype between gender of and honors received by the graduates. Moreover, the computed contingency coefficient (c=0.19) was tested to be statistically insignificant. The facts indicate no difference in academic performance between the male and female graduates of Bicol University. Professional skill A coefficient of 0.09 shows a very low trendy movement between gender and professional skills in the sample respondents. Also, the test submits no statistically significant relationship between the variables. The predominant answer, other skills actually refer to the discipline-based competences such as accounting skills for BS accountancy graduates, teaching skills for BEEd and BSEd alumni, and the like.

  5. Professional license For the distribution of the graduates by professional license by gender. The trend is similar in both sexes. We can therefore surmise that gender has nothing to do with the professional license of the BU graduate. Trainings, advanced studies attended Data show no significant relationship exists between sex and trainings attended by the graduates. There is a very low contingency coefficient of 0.16. This finding points out no separation in the kind of preparation or enhancement for job between the sexes. It was seen that more females attended post baccalaureate or professional certificate programs or training that is more than one year than males.

  6. Employment Gender and present employment has a low correlation coefficient of 0.21. But this association is significant enough to exist among the population of graduates. The data also display that the lowest male-female ratio is in the regular/permanent jobs and the unemployed. Present occupation Gender and present occupation among the population of graduates appear to be significantly associated at c = 0.22. The lowest male-female proportion could be noticed in the professional occupation and the sectors where males are slightly greater in number are in the government/special interest executive positions and in plant assembling machine operations

  7. Place of work Data show zero relationship between gender and place of work of BU graduates. This gives evidence that there is no basis to presume that one gender prefers to work abroad than the other. Reason for staying on the job Data show that for the frequency distribution of the graduates by reason for staying on the job by gender., the trend is similar to both the male and female graduates. It can also be seen that the most number of graduates stay on the job because of salaries and benefits.

  8. Relation of first job to course Male and female graduates do not differ in their view on whether the course they took in college was related to their first job or not. Similarly, the contingency coefficient of 0.03 is statistically insignificant Length of time of finding job It can be noted that most of the graduates, both male and female took from less than a month to 1 to 6 moths finding a job. Likewise, there is no significant difference in the time of finding job between the male and female graduates of BU (c= 0.05).

  9. Job level Data show that in all jobs, except for the managerial position, there are more females than males Statistical tests showing that the job levels of male and female graduates do not differ (c=0.03) confirm this.

  10. Conclusions and Recommendations Gender among the graduates of Bicol University seems to have a bearing on the course they took in college, their present employment and their present occupation. Males still crowd the engineering, technology, agriculture and criminology-associated courses but the females dominate almost all the rest of the courses. Males take up the executive positions in government and special interest organizations and the machine operations tasks jobs while females predominate in almost all other jobs, especially the professional careers These findings suggest the reasonability of pursuing further studies that could test the hypothesis that a significant association exists between gender and the variables mentioned.

  11. On the other hand, sex appears not to have an influence on the honors they received in college, the reason for taking the college course, their present professional skills, their place of work, the relation of the college course to their first job, the length of time in finding job and the job level. Scholastic performance in college seems not be influenced by sex. The latter also does not have any bearing on the reasons why these graduates took the courses they had in college. Said findings do not suggest the conduct of studies that would test the hypothesis that a significant association exists between gender and the afore cited variables.
