INTRODUCTION
step for every human activity. However, working is now a fundamental responsibility for many
undergraduates. It plays a vital role in the development of human capital and is linked with an
individual’s well-being and opportunities for better living (Battle & Lewis, 2002). Most of the
working students are familiar with the “work- life balance” where an individual must balance
time for academics and work. A report by the Trade Union Congress (TUC) shows that the
number of students undertaking term-time employment grew more than 50% between 1996 and
2006 [1]. The increase is partly the result of the changes in student funding over the past two
decades, due to the rapid expansion in student numbers. And according to National Center for
Education Statistics of 2007, nearly half (45%) of traditional undergraduates- that are students
between the ages of 16 to 24 attending high school fulltime worked while enrolled.
The trend of employment among university students has been increasing rapidly in the
last decade. Some suggest that economic reasons are mainly the factor for this trend. With an
increase in the number of students taking part-time job outside campus, its effect on students’
academic performance of students has been questioned by many researchers (Green, 1987).
Issues such as the number of hours worked, whether the student’s jobs pertain to their majors,
and student’s workloads (Watanabe, 2005) have been discussed and scrutinized to see the
academic performance. Furr and Elling (2000) proved that students working between 30-39
hours per week and those working 40+ hours per week felt that their employment had a negative
effect on their academic achievement. Others also found that students working between 1 and 15
hours per week showed a slightly higher GPA than those with a heavier workload. On the other
hand, UK studies have highlighted benefits of part-time employment, including work experience,
improving time management skills and gaining transferable skills, such as communication, oral
Another study states, students involvement in employment has positive impact to develop
career-related skills. It is hands-on experience that cannot be gained in the classroom alone.
Whatever the reasons the students have in taking part time job, there is a popular believe that
student with part time job do not tend to have higher academic achievement, because their focus
time of study has been divided with their working time. Better academic achievement only can
be achieved by students who spend more time on academic related activities outside of class (
e.g., reading the text, completing assignment, studying, and preparing reports) (Sarah & Hudson,
2005).
In Manila, Philippines - About 216,000 students in the country are currently juggling
school and work, according to latest data from the Commission on Higher Education
(CHED).The figure is about 8% of the total number of college students in the country.CHED
said working students today are mostly into food service, entertainment and sales, apart from
their usual stints as library and research assistants."Dahil sa financial crisis, kailangan nila ng
extra income," said lawyer Julito Vitriolo, officer-in-charge at CHED's office of the executive
director.Vitriolo added that these students are forced to work because of higher commodity
prices and tuition fees.Jerry Rontal, who delivers oxygen tanks in a hospital. Rontal is currently
taking up Criminology, and needs to pay a tuition fee of P24,000 for this semester.The amount
does not include expenses for books, uniform and public transport. "Gusto kong umangat sa
hirap. Kakayanin po, kailangan po eh. Kung hindi ako kikilos, walang mangyayari," Rontal said.
Despite their efforts, the pressure to balance work and school is just too much for many working
students. The CHED said that only 50% of working students get to finish college, as many
cannot cope and cannot concentrate on their studies, while some have poor health, while others
give up because of insufficient funds. CHED advised working students to get jobs that are not
that demanding, and that are more closely related to their courses. -- Report from Bernadette
A study also in Santa Rosa Campus stated a common problem that is related to the
current study, the study deals with the Academic Performance of Selected Working Students in
Polytechnic University of the Philippines, Santa Rosa Campus. One of the negative effects
typically arise because hours spent at work take time away from studying which may lead to
lower grades and less attractive post college opportunities. In educational institutions, success is
measured by academic performance, or how well a student meets standards set out by local
government and the institution itself. As career competition grows ever fiercer in the working
world, the importance of students doing well in school has caught the attention of parents,
legislators and government education departments alike. Although education is not the only road
to success in the working world, much effort is made to identify, evaluate, track and encourage
The problems mentioned from above is relate to the present study because there are also
schools in Bislig City which also have working while studying students. An example of this is
Dela Salle John Bosco College which offers Sunday High school for those students who has
part-time job.
In addition, Lazarus & Cohen 1977 said, “Stressors are demands made by the internal or
external environment that upset balance, thus affecting physical and psychological well-being
and requiring action to restore balance”. The work is a stressor that upset balance affecting the
academic performance. That is why the researchers came up to an idea to make evidence, if
having part time job can affect the academic performance of a student in Dela Salle John Bosco
College (DSJBC).
The purpose of this study is to know the academic performance of the working students
at Dela Salle John Bosco College (DLSJBC) School Year 2018-2019. The study aims to answer

There are four major subjects in the first semester that are to be collected namely English,
Mathematics, Science and Filipino to determine the students’ academic performances. Therefore,
the respondents of this study are the Sunday High School Students who are mostly have part-
time jobs at Dela Salle John Bosco College located at Mangagoy, Bislig City. The study limits

The effects on students of working in a part-time job while at school constitute the
subject of this report. Although it is widely recognized that many students are employed part-
time out of school hours, little is known about the consequences of such employment. It has
been shown that around one quarter to one third of Australian secondary school students
regularly hold part-time jobs during the school year (Robinson, 1996). Many students are having
their part-time jobs to supply their daily needs. According to International Labor Organization
(2003), part time job is a form of employment that carries fewer hours per week than full time
job. Workers are considered to be part-time if they commonly work fewer than 30 or 35 hours
per week.
coping strategies and positive attributions, and background characteristics (i.e., family income,
parents’ level of education, guidance from parents and number of negative situations in the
home) were indirectly related to their composite scores, through academic achievement in high
school. The students face a lot of problems in developing positive study attitudes and study
habits. Guidance is of the factor through which a student can improve his study attitudes and
study habits and is directly proportional to academic achievement. The students who are properly
guided by their parents have performed well in the exams. The guidance from the parents
The benchmark reference can be considered the Theory of the Allocation of Time (Becker,
1965), where it can be inferred a negative impact of employment activities during university on
academic performance due to the trade-off between the time dedicated to study and working
time. Nevertheless, there might not be necessarily a negative relationship between working and
choice of not compulsory lessons, flexibility in academic planning schedule, etc). Also the trade-
off between working and studying could be reduced by substituting working time with leisure,
rather than with hours of study (Dundes and Marx, 2006, Butler, 2007). The achievement of
students is negatively correlated with the low financial status of parents because it hinders the
individual in gaining access to sources and resources of learning (Duke, 2000; Eamon, 2005;
Lopez, 1995). Low financial status strongly affects the achievement of students, dragging them
down to a lower level (Sander, 2001). This effect is most visible at the post-secondary level
(Trusty, 2000). It is also observed that the economically disadvantaged parents are less able to
afford the cost of education of their children at higher levels and consequently they do not work
Feinstein et al.’s (2007) study, pays particular attention to personal and social outcomes
of study, including, particularly, improvements in skills such as writing and communications and
also to earn money while still learning. Personal development, greater self-confidence and
employment had a positive influence on academic performance. Astin reported that the effects of
on-campus employment were characterized as positive in nature, while off campus student
employment is associated with lower GPA. The positive effects of on-campus employment are
due to enhanced integration with the institution, including involvement with other students and
with faculty (Furr and Elling, 2000). In addition, on campus jobs often include responsibilities
Local Literature
According to Freeman in Cebu, Philippines - The life of a student is not easy. The ones
who are naturally slow have to keep up with the rest of the class. And even the ones with
superior learning abilities are pressured to stay at the top. The student’s situation is daunting
enough. Yet not as daunting as when the student has something equally important to busy him or
herself with. Many students have to do jobs in order to see themselves through school - the
working students.
If the term "working student" does not seem to elicit sympathetic feeling anymore, it may
be because the number of these extraordinarily hard-pressed young people have grown so much
that they have already become commonplace. Or, in a poor country like the Philippines, working
students have come to be expected; otherwise, young people would only seal their fate in the
According to the National Statistics Coordination Board (NSCB) published that the full-
time workers in July 2010 recorded a share of 64.3 percent of the total employed while the part-
time workers, 35.0 percent. The number of underemployed persons in July 2010 was estimated at
6.5 million, placing the current underemployment rate at 17.9 percent. More than half (58.1%) of
the total underemployed were reported as visibly underemployed or working less than 40 hours
during the reference week. Those working for 40 hours or more accounted for 40.4 percent. Most
of the underemployed were working in the agriculture sector (46.7%) and services sector
(37.8%). The underemployed in the industry sector accounted for 15.5 percent.

University, Winona, USA about If really Part-Time Job Affect College Students’ Satisfaction
and Academic Performance (GPA)? A Case of a Mid-Sized Public University. They aimed to
While considerable research has been conducted to assess the effects of work on part-time job
(number of working hours) on many college outcomes such as GPA as measured by cumulative
grade point average. Besides, previous research has given little attention to the effect of part-
tome job (working hours) on students’ satisfaction. This study therefore intends to assess the
effect of part-time job on both students’ satisfaction and academic achievement (GPA) using a
The results of their study are student employment impacts GPA positively, when students
do work fewer than 10 hours. Thus, student employment may not always be detrimental to
academic performance, as measured by GPA. However, when students work for more than 11
hours a week, GPAs were found to decline for each additional category of work, although the
change is very small. This finding is consistent with most of the prior studies (Humphery, 2006;
Hunt et al., 2004; Tuttle et al., 2005; Curtis, 2007; Metcalf, 2003; Curtis, 2007). That is, the more
hours students work, the greater the likelihood of negative effects on student satisfaction and
GPA. That is, as working hours per week increases (beyond 11 hours a week), students’
satisfaction and GPA decreases. One of their illustration partly contradicts the conclusions drawn
from Coleman’s zero-sum time-allocation theory that assumes that time spent on working may
lead to reduced time spent on studying, which subsequently reduces GPA. As clearly revealed
about 79 percent of the respondents were working while studying. The high percentage of
students working also reflects the national trend of 80 percent of American undergraduates
working while attending college (King, 2006). Thus, an important implication of the current
study is that if the overwhelming majority of college students are working, knowing the effect of
work (the number of working hours) on students’ satisfaction and GPA is critical for different
stakeholders such as counselors, academic advisors, administrators, students, and parents. The
results of their empirical study indicate that work had a negative impact on students’ satisfaction
Another related study conducted by Safrul Muluk (2017) at the Universitas Islam
NegeriAr-Raniry Banda Aceh, Indonesia. Their study is aimed at investigating the effects of
students’ employment on their academic achievement. Various factors considered to have effects
of students’ academic achievement are explored. This includes the type of jobs, the time spent on
part-time job, students’ GPA, and the time needed to finish their studies. In their study, it can be
concluded that working part time job do not have any significant effect on students’ academic
performance. The results of their GPA, despite working outside university, were still high.
Nevertheless, majority of students involved in part time job up to 20 hours per week finish their
study in nine semesters or more. Working part-time has an effect on the time of study completion
and the students’ stress level as well. Furthermore, the common reasons mentioned by
respondents in relation to why they need to take part time job are due to income needs to fulfill
their education needs such as tuition fees, or school stuffs and looking for experience to advance

Kurataa, Rose Marie Lou P. Banob, Aura C. Matias about the Effects of workload on academic
students as basis of strategies that may help the students better adapt in situations requiring high
workload. Their research can serve as a basis in the creation of instructional content, course
design, and physical characteristics of instructional materials and as well as advised unit load
suitable for working engineering students. By understanding the relationship of workload and
academic performance, concepts of physical and cognitive ergonomics can help educators assess,
Findings from their research revealed that there is indeed a significant relationship
between overall workload of a working engineering student to their academic performance. This
finding suggests that any moderating factors affecting workload can have an effect to the
students’ academic performance as well. Any changes and alteration in lifestyle, health,
academic unit load, and current year standing can influence academic performance due to its
physiological and psychosocial effects to learning. The comparative analysis of GWA and
NASA-TLX rating of working and non-working students yield a significant difference implying
that the two groups have different workloads and academic results. In working students, they
have higher workload while their academic performance is lower compared to non-working
students. It is also worth noting that standard deviation of workload is high in working students
due to the difference with regards to moderating factors in a group (full-time versus part-time) or
in the individual level (male and female). High level of workload in an academic setting needs
awareness. So the study suggested the administration to consider the effects of workload to
academic performance including physical and psychosocial factors in maximizing the student’s
potential in learning. Therefore, assessment and evaluation of the moderating factors must be
considered to properly address the issue of subject retakes. With this, the number of quality

Table 4.1 shows the academic grades of the Sunday High School working students at De
La Salle John Bosco College. It can be seen in the table that the respondents in the English,
Filipino and Science Subject, they got an average of 85 which is devoted Very Satisfactory.
While the average grade of the student in Math is 84 which is marked Fairly Satisfactory. This
means that all of the students are competent and got a passing grade on the first semester.
On the other hand, although they got a passing score, the mathematics subject has the
lowest average in the four core subjects. Some of the student- respondents have difficulties on
this subject which result to a lower grade than the other subjects.
This result is supported by a study conducted by Safrul Muluk (2017) at the Universitas
Islam NegeriAr-Raniry Banda Aceh, Indonesia which aimed at investigating the effects of
students’ employment on their academic achievement. In their study, it concluded that having
part time jobs do not have any significant effect on students’ academic performance. The result
of their general average, despite working outside university, was still high.
