EMOTIONAL CAPITAL AND JOB SATISFACTION OF OVERSEAS FILIPINO WORKERS: BASIS FOR HAVILLAH INTERNATIONAL MANPOWER SERVICES INCORPORATED’S SUSTAINABILITY STRATEGY

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to create a sustainability plan for Havillah International Manpower Services, Inc. that gave overseas Filipino workers’ (OFWs’) accomplishments and well-being a top priority. The connection between emotional capital and job satisfaction among OFWs was examined using a descriptive-correlational methodology with descriptive and inferential statistics. To choose a sample of 203 OFWs, stratified random sampling was used. A modified questionnaire with five components served as the survey’s measurement tool. The study’s findings, which indicated that emotional capital was an important factor in determining job satisfaction, emphasized the necessity of including emotional intelligence training in an organization’s sustainability plans. The findings offer crucial information for researchers, decision-makers, and organizations interested in understanding the profile of OFWs and how it affects their well-being, personal growth, family ties, and emotional intelligence, among other aspects of their lives. According to the study’s conclusions, a sustainable plan for OFWs should prioritize their emotional health and take advantage of emotional intelligence training’s advantages to raise their level of job satisfaction and general quality of life.
