INTRODUCTION

Rationale

The COVID-19 pandemic has led to a dramatic loss of human life worldwide and

presents an unprecedented challenge to public health, food systems and the world of work. The

economic and social disruption caused by the pandemic is devastating tens of millions of people

are at risk of falling into extreme poverty, while the number of undernourished people, currently

estimated at nearly 690 million, could increase by up to 132 million by the end of the year

Millions of enterprises face an existential threat. Nearly half of the world's 33 billion global

workforce are at risk of losing their livelihoods GENEVA (ILO News)-The continued sharp

decline in working hours globally due to the COVID-19 outbreak means that 1.6 billion workers

in the informal economy--that is nearly half of the global workforce-stand in immediate danger of

having their livelihoods destroyed, warns the International Labor Organization According to the

ILO Monitor third edition: COVID-19 and the world of work, the drop in working hours in the

current (second) quarter of 2020 is expected to be significantly worse than previously estimated

Regionally, the situation has worsened for all Imajor regional groups. Estimates suggest a 124

per cent loss of working hours in Q2 for the Americas (compared to pre-cnsis levels) and 11.8

per cent for Europe and Central Asia. The estimates for the rest of the regional groups follow

closely and are all above 9.5 per cent Informal economy workers are particularly vulnerable

because the majority lack social protection and access to quality health care and have lost

access to productive assets. Without the means to earn an income during lockdown, many are

unable to feed themselves and their families For most, no income means no food, or, at best,

less food and less nutritious food. The pandemic has been affecting the entire food system and

has laid bars is facility declares, the restrictions and confinement measures have been

preventing farmers bon accessing market including for buying inputs and selling their produce,

and agricultural workers from harvesting crops, thus disrupting domestic and international food
supply chains and reducing access to healthy, safe and diverse diets The pandemic has

decimated jobs and placed millions of livelihood. As breadwinners lose jobs, fall all and de, the

food security and nutrition of millions of women and men are under threat, with those in low-

income countries, particularly the most marginalized populations, which include small-scale

farmers and indigenous peoples, being hardest hit Millions of agricultural workers-wagon and

self-employed-while funding the world, regularly face high levels of working poverty, malnutrition

and poor health, and suffer from a lack of safety and labor protection as well as other types of

abuse With low and irregular incomes and a lack of social support, many of them are spurned to

continue working, often in unsafe conditions, thus exposing themselves and their families to

additional risks In designing and implementing such measures t is essential that governments

work closely with employers and workers This study tries to give information or understanding

how Covid-19 pandemic affects the In livelihood of Filipino workers, in particular worker health,

income, and safety. As COVID hit, many work places were being closed for the reason of

increasing number of infected from the virus, resulting for the workers to be dismissed from their

job. This situation is being replicated across different sectors in concern's countries of operation

search and

Statement of the Problem

The main purpose of this study was to focused on the effects of Covid-19 pandemic in

livelihood of Liloan workers was often not to go their workplace, to provide insight into the

formulation of continues lay off of workers Specifically. This study sought answers to the

following question.

1. What is the profile of the respondents in terms of:

1.1.age

1.2.gender
 1.3.level of education

1.4 address

1-5 job description

2. What are the factors that affect workers in going to work?

3. How does the pandemic affect the livelihood of the workers?

4. What actions they take to cope up the effects of pandemic?

Scope and Delimitations

This study focuses on the effects of Covid-19 pandemic in livelihood of workers in

Liloan. This involves a survey for those who are affected of the covid-19 pandemic. The

selection of respondents is only limited since there are lots of workers in lilo-an are affected by

covid-19 pandemic. They are classified by their age, gender, level of education and the kind of

job they work for.

This research is designed to have a thorough knowledge of the effects of covid-19

pandemic in livelihood of workers in lilo-an. And to be aware of the programs of the government

to help affected workers.

This study is anchored by Bolaños, Lanchimba, & Sanchez (2020). The recently
emerged SARS-CoV-2, that caused the so-called COVID-19 outbreak disease, was firstly
reported from Wuhan, China, at late December 2019 (WHO, 2020a) Since then, according the
Johns Hopkins University, by mid-May 2020, there are more than 4 380 000 reported cases of
COVID-19 in 188 countries. The propagation of the virus is quite fast. It only took 30 days to
expand from Hubei, the province in which Wuhan is located, to the rest of Mainland China
(Novel Coronavirus Pneumonia Emergency Response Epidemiology Team, 2020). Experts
indicate that COVID-19 is an acute resolved disease but it can also be deadly, with a 2% case
fatality rate (Xu et al., 2020). The effects of this pandemic are all over the world in the majority of
economic sectors and countries. In that venue, it is expected that developing economies have to
face more challenging scenarios compared to developed economies due to the fragility of their
economic and health systems.

Humanity have overcome pandemics such as Plague of Justinian, Black Death,

Smallpox, Great Plague of Marseille, Spanish Flu, SARS, which killed million people worldwide.
We also stopped potential pandemics like the Ebola virus through proactive public health
initiatives, through the development of drugs and vaccines that now keep people alive. In 2020,
the humanity is facing a new pandemic caused by the so-called SARS-CoV-2 virus (the COVID-
19's pandemic). To face this situation, almost all countries in the world agreed to contain the
SARS-CoV-2 expansion through quarantine and social distancing. In such a context, the
COVID-19's pandemic necessarily implies a global economic recession because of the sudden
stop of several economic activities as tourism, spectacles, trade of some goods and services,
among others. At a macroeconomic level, the COVID-19 shock causes both aggregate supply
and aggregate demand to reduce so plunging the world into a global recession.

According to the World Bank and the IMF, the global recession caused by the COVID-19
pandemic will be far greater than that caused by the global financial crisis of 2008-2009 and
even comparable to the Great Depression of 1929. LAC economies are particularly vulnerable
to the COVID-19 shock because (i) they are characterized to be commodities producers which
price have significantly fall, (ii) they are highly indebted, (iii) they are considered as risky
countries by financial markets so financial capital are running away from the LAC region, (iv)
their national currencies are losing value against the US dollar, (v) their public finances are
fragile and (vi) some LAC countries central banks are suffering from serious liquidity issues. As
most countries in the world, the LAC governments are facing the COVID-19 shock by
implementing essential public policies (increasing public health spending, implementing
economic compensations for people which income have reduced or disappeared and for
stopped businesses) which financing is worsening their already thin fiscal spaces and
increasing their already high debt levels.

Local

This study is anchored by ILO (2020). The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has
rapidly transformed into an unprecedented global economic and labour market crisis, with
severe impact on the world of work in the Philippines. This report examines the
multidimensional impact on employment and the labour market. It provides an account of the
evolution of COVID-19 in the Philippines and its economic impact in the first half of 2020
Building on baseline labour market data prior to the onset of COVID-19 and labour force survey
data from April 2020, the report provides insights into the preliminary employment and labour
market effects and identifies sectors experiencing high impact on their economic output due to
the crisis. In the context of increasing calls for digitalization the report also attempts to identify
occupations and sectors facing a dual challenge of high impact due to COVID-19 job disruption
and the disruptive effect of digitalization. The assessment also aims to shed light on the
disproportional impact of COVID-19 on vulnerable population groups. Against the backdrop of
current labour market policy responses related to COVID-19, the report identifies areas for
policy responses to: (1) stimulate the economy and jobs; (i) support enterprises, employment
and incomes, (iii) protect workers in the workplace; and (iv) use social dialogue between and
among the government, workers and employers to find solutions.

This chapter presents the literature and studies relevant to research topic.

According to Kayes, I., Mahanta, J., et al (2020), the global impact of the coronavirus
disease (COVID-19) pandemic is expanding daily on the poor due to job loss and other shocks
to income and diminished livelihoods. 1 The most vulnerable portion of society includes poorer
households and those dependent on informal employment. It includes casual day laborers,
small-scale producers, and many more who have less access to social protection because of a
smaller amount of savings or limited alternative sources of income both in urban and rural
settings 2 In rural areas, poor people are at risk of losing their prime income source as they
cannot sell their agricultural products or are incapable of storing their produce or have difficulties
in the process of producing new products. On the other hand, in the urban context, poor people
are completely dependent on incomes from labor or self-employment

According to WHO (2020), Millions of agricultural workers waged and self-employed

while feeding the world, regularly face high levels of working poverty. malnutrition and poor
health, and suffer from a lack of safety and labour protection as well as other types of abuse
With low and irregular incomes and a lack of social support many of them are spurred to
continue working, often in unsafe conditions, thus exposing themselves and their families to
additional risks. Further, when experiencing income losses, they may resort to negative coping
strategies, such as distress sale of assets predatory loans or child labour. Migrant agricultural
workers are particularly vulnerable because they face risks in their transport, working and living
conditions and struggle to access support measures put in place by governments

According to COOPI (2020), the economic effect of pandemic is being-and will be- felt across
countries and communities at global level. Containment and social distancing measures
adopted to slow the virus- taken also by governments whose countries didn't necessarily show
the highest numbers of Covid 19 cases- caused a production slowdown and reduction in
consumption. The lives and livelihood of millions of people especially those living in countries
experiencing humanitarian crisis are and will be heavily affected.

According to Koh, S.C.L., et al. (2020), No doubt, addressing the public health consequences of
COVID-19 is the top priority, but the nature of the equally crucial economic recovery efforts
necessitates some key questions as governments around the world introduce stimulus
packages to aid such recovery endeavours: Should these packages focus on avenues to
economic recovery and growth by thrusting business as usual into overdrive or could they be
targeted towards constructing a more resilient low carbon CE? To answer this question, this
paper builds on the extant literature on public health, socio-economic and environmental
dimensions of COVID-19 impacts (Gates, 2020b; Guerrieri et al., 2020; Piguillem and Shi, 2020;
Sohrabi et al., 2020).

According to Inquiry Net (2020) MANILA, Philippines-Around 3.8 million local workers
and over 550,000 overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) have so far been displaced by the
pandemic, the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) said on Thursday During a year-
end press conference, DOLE Assistance Secretary Dominique Tutay said the 3.8 million
workers are composed of employees who were either retrenched, permanently displaced, or
"undergoing flexible work arrangements, as well as those who were affected by the temporary
closure of their workplace. Labor Secretary Silvestre Bello III said that DOLE has utilized over
P3 billion to assist 658,886 private sector workers under the COVID-19 Adjustment Measures
Program (CAMP) Meanwhile, over 423,000 workers in the informal sector were able to receive
assistance through DOLE's Tulong Panghanapbuhay sa Ating Disadvantaged/Displaced
Workers (TUPAD) program Displaced OFWS DOLE International Labor Affairs Bureau (ILAB)
director Alice Visperas also reported the latest displacement figures among OFWs As of Dec
17, Visperas said DOLE has recorded over 550,000 OFWs displaced by the pandemic Of the
number, around 370,000 have already been repatriated to their home provinces while 126,000
are awaiting repatriation Some 82,000 displaced OFWs opted to stay in their host country.
Visperas also noted. In addition Department of Labor and Employment more than 400,000
overseas Filipino workers affected by the Covid 19 pandemic had been brought home by the
government, the labor department reported on Saturday. According to Fritzie Rodriguez (2020)
The COVID-19 pandemic has put millions of people worldwide out of work, paralyzing both
small businesses and big industries. While we all feel this pain, one group in particular is
suffering in silence: young workers. Globally, over 1 in 6 young people have stopped working
since the onset of the COVID-19 crisis, the International Labor Organization (ILO) reported. In
the Philippines, the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) stated that at least 2.6
million workers have already been "temporarily or permanently displaced from their jobs. DOLE
estimates that around 5 million Filipinos would lose their jobs to the pandemic. Meanwhile,
some lawmakers give a bigger estimate of 10 million. While exact figures on youth
unemployment resulting from the pandemic are yet to be revealed, we can all agree that young
Filipino workers are not immune to the economic fallouts resulting from this generation's biggest
health crisis.

Base on the summary of covid-19 Economic Growth Employment,and Poverty (2020)

The global COVID-19 pandemic is having a significant adverse impact on the Philippines
economy, jobs, and poverty incidence. Despite a decline in the poverty rate in? the Philippines
from 25.2% in 2012 to 23.3% in 2015 to 16.6% in 2018, the current pandemic could have a
direct and indirect impact on poverty and inequality due to: the loss of livelihoods; a partial or
total disruption of supply chains which include many micro, small and medium enterprises
(MSME), a massive increase in personal and MSME debt, the loss of a primary income earner
in families due to illness or death, and decrease in remittances from overseas Filipino workers.

According to Department of Labour (2020), The Philippines recorded in April 2020 its
most severe unemployment rate on record. 77 Philippine unemployment records started in
1987, and the last double-digit unemployment rate was recorded in Q2 1991 when it breached
14.4 per cent. This year's most recent estimate, corresponding to Q2 2020 or April 2020, was
17.7 per cent (figure 5). It is equivalent to about 7.3 million unemployed individuals, a more than
threefold increase from the 2.3 million unemployed in April 2019. The labour force participation
rate (LFPR) in April 2020 was thus estimated at 55.6 per cent (versus 61.3 per cent in April
2019), the lowest since 1987. The rate of underemployment stood at 18.9 per cent, which
equates to approximately 6.4 million individuals who either want to work.

Base on the research of Covid-19 outbreak in China (2020), the coronavirus (COVID-19)
outbreak has had an obvious and immediate impact on China's economy According to the
World Health Organization (WHO), as of March 5, there were 80,565 confirmed cases and more
than 3,015 deaths from the virus in China alone Cities, offices, stores, and factories across the
nation have remained closed since the Chinese New Year on January 25, and travel controls
and quarantine measures are still being tightly applied throughout the country People in all
industries, especially workers in the manufacturing and service sectors, continue to be stuck in
their hometowns, even though the official date for return to work was February 10. While the
Chinese Enterprise Confederation (CED) reports that 97 percent of the top 500 Chinese
manufacturers have resumed operations, the impact on mid- and small-size factories is much
greater A survey from recruiting platform BOSS Zhipin cited an average resumption of work rate
of only around 58 percent in the manufacturing sector as of February 21. Manufacturing for
foreign trade in provinces such as Zhejiang and Shandong has only reached 70 percent
capacity

According to the brooking edu research (2020), over the last few weeks, government
responses to arrest the spread of the coronavirus pandemic have brought massive disruptions
to Americans' economic lives. The people feeling those disruptions most viscerally include the
millions of U.S. workers left jobless by shuttered restaurants, hotels, and retail stores,
plummeting air and rail travel, and emptied museums, casinos, and sports stadiums. In just two
short weeks, a record 10 million American workers filed claims for unemployment benefits. The
plight of these individuals and their families motivated Congress and the administration to enact
significant increases to unemployment benefits, assistance to small businesses, and direct
payments to individuals in the $2.2 trillion CARES Act Now, however, leaders beyond
Washington most prominently at the local level-must provide affected workers with information
and connections to not only federal assistance, but also local emergency "bridge" programs that
can help them while they await support. To that end, this brief offers first-order estimates of the
size and characteristics of the workforce most immediately impacted by pandemic responses.
We first compiled a list of immediate-risk industries in which social distancing measures, travel
restrictions, and related government actions have already heavily curtailed employment. These
build upon-with greater specificity and two weeks of additional evidence-the vulnerable
industries our colleagues Mark Muro, Robert Maxim; and Jacob Whiton analyzed to pinpoint the
places at greatest economic risk from the COVID-19 recession. We then used 2018 Census
Bureau data to examine the size, location, and demographic/economic profile of vulnerable
workers in those industries including detail for each of the nation's 384 metropolitan areas,
which approximate local labor markets. This information can help policymakers, program
architects, outreach specialists, and funders scale and target their efforts to help economically
vulnerable individuals and their families weather a fierce economic storm OVER 37 MILLION
AMERICANS WORK IN INDUSTRIES IMMEDIATELY IMPACTED BY COVID-19 As of 2018,
immediate-risk industries employed a total of 37 2 million people, or 23% of the total U.S.
workforce These industries include those facing near-term impacts from measures taken to
combat the spread of the coronavirus, such as retail, passenger transportation, arts and
entertainment, accommodation, restaurants and bars, and a variety of other personal services.
(The appendix contains a full list of the impacted industries we identified.) To be sure not every
worker in these industries faces the immediate prospect of job loss, US airlines are still flying
planes, many restaurants are providing takeout service, and a patchwork of state and local
responses to the virus means that retailers remain open for business in some places. And the
economic pain is not limited to these sectors, the producers and wholesalers who supply these
consumer facing industries are also feeling the impact, or will very soon. Yet the nearly one-
quarter of American workers employed in immediate-risk industries represent, in many ways,
the first dominoes to fall in an economic downturn of unknown length and severity.

Base on the study of The large and unequal impact of COVID-19 (2020). The COVID-19
has already had a large negative impact on labor supply and spread earnings of workers in
many countries In this column, the authors leverage newly collected data from the US and the
UK to show that these negative consequences are particularly harsh for younger workers, those
with unstable employment relationships and lower labor income The evidence calls for a quick
response from governments in the form of stimulus and labor income replacement packages,
and a robust plan to ensure that the younger generation are not permanently disadvantaged.
The world economy is enduring a staggering downturn amidst the spread of COVID-19
Individuals are already suffering immediate losses in terms of income and employment
Economists have been quick to call for governments to take strong coordinated actions (eg
Baldwin 2020. Benassy-Quéré et al 2020) Early survey data suggests that uncertainty for
businesses has heightened dramatically (Bloom et al 2020).
 Base on the research, Impact of COVID-19 on people's livelihoods, their health and our
food system (2020), The COVID-19 pandemic has led to a dramatic loss of human life
worldwide and presents an unprecedented challenge to public health, food systems and the
world of work. The economic and social disruption caused by the pandemic is devastating: tens
of millions of people are at risk of falling into extreme poverty, while the number of
undernourished people, currently estimated at nearly 690 million, could increase by up to 132
million by the end of the year. Millions of enterprises face an existential threat. Nearly half of the
world's 3.3 billion global workforce are at risk of losing their livelihoods. Informal economy
workers are particularly vulnerable because the majority lack social protection and access to
quality health care and have lost access to productive assets Without the means to earn an
income during lockdowns, many are unable to feed themselves and their families. For most, no
income means no food, or, at best, less food and less nutritious food.

The pandemic has been affecting the entire food system and has laid bare its fragility Border
closures, trade restrictions and confinement measures have been preventing farmers from
accessing markets, including for buying inputs and selling their produce, and agricultural
workers from harvesting crops thus disrupting domestic and international food supply chains
and reducing access to healthy. safe and diverse diets The pandemic has decimated jobs and
placed millions of livelihoods at risk As breadwinners lose jobs, fall ill and die, the food security
and nutrition of millions of women and men are under threat, with those in low-income countries,
particularly the most marginalized populations, which include small-scale farmers and
indigenous peoples, being hardest hit Millions of agricultural workers- waged and self employed
- while feeding the world, regularly face high levels of working poverty, malnutrition and poor
health, and suffer from a lack of safety and labour protection as well as other types of abuse.
With low and irregular incomes and a lack of social support many of them are spurred to
continue working, often in unsafe conditions, thus exposing themselves and their families to
additional risks. Further, when experiencing income losses, they may resort to negative coping
strategies, such as distress sale of assets predatory loans or child labour. Migrant agricultural
workers are particularly vulnerable, because they face risks in their transport, working and living
conditions and struggle to access support measures put in place by governments. Guaranteeing
the safety and health of all agri-food workers from primary producers to those involved in food
processing, transport and retail, including street food vendors - as well as better incomes and
protection, will be critical to saving lives and protecting public health, people's livelihoods and
food security. In the COVID-19 crisis food security, public health, and employment and labour
issues, in particular workers' health and safety converge. Adhering to workplace safety and
health practices and ensuring access to decent work and the protection of labour rights in all
industries will be crucial in addressing the human dimension of the crisis. Immediate and
purposeful action to save lives and livelihoods should include extending social protection
towards universal health coverage and income support for those most affected.

These include workers in the informal economy and in poorly protected and low-paid jobs,
including youth, older workers, and migrants Particular attention must be paid to the situation of
women, who are over-represented in low-paid jobs and care roles. Different forms of support
are key, including cash transfers, child allowances and healthy school meals, shelter and food
relief initiatives, support for employment retention and recovery, and financial relief for
businesses, including micro, small and medium-sized enterprises In designing and
implementing such measures it is essential that governments work closely with employers and
workers Countries dealing with existing humanitarian crises or emergencies are particularly
exposed to the effects of COVID-19. Responding swiftly to the pandemic, while ensuring that
humanitarian and recovery assistance reaches those most in need, is critical. Now is the time
for global solidarity and support, especially with the most vulnerable in our societies, particularly
in the emerging and developing world. Only together can we overcome the intertwined health
and social and economic impacts of the pandemic and prevent its escalation into a protracted
humanitarian and food security catastrophe, with the potential loss of already achieved
development gains. We must recognize this opportunity to build back better, as noted in the
Policy Brief.

Research Methodology
 This chapter presents the discussion on the research methodology of the study the
subject, sampling technique, research instruments, procedure of gathering the data that will be
used for accurate data analysis and interpretation for the study conducted

Research Design

The survey study will be used in this study. This design has advantage of measuring
current attitudes or practices on an occupant and get the verbal portrayal of the subjects
exposed to covid-19 pandemic. It founds out the effects of Covid-19 pandemic in livelihood of
workers. Quantitative research should be observed as it will get opinions from the respondents
through interview. Survey research is a quantitative method to collect information from a pool of
respondents by asking multiple survey questions.

Research Environment

This study was conducted around Municipality of Liloan. Liloan is composed of 14

Barangays and 237 Puroks, with a land area of approximately 5,210 hectares. 2021 estimates
peg Liloan's population at over 160,000, a significant portion of which makes up Metro Cebu's
professional and skilled workforce. On the other hand, this environment is the target of the study
in which some of the workers here need an assessment on how the pandemic affected their
livelihood.

Research Respondents
 The research respondents are taken only from Municipality of Liloan Workers with the
age of 20 years and above. There will be 20 respondents for this research. The researcher only
focuses of Workers in Liloan in the study. They are selected through convenience sampling.
Convenience sampling is a specific type of non-probability sampling method that relies on data
collection from population who are conveniently

available to participate in the study.

Research Instrument

The open-ended questionnaire utilized by the researcher's primary served as the data
gathering instrument of the study. The questionnaire is composed of eight items descriptively.
This research ins ent has series of questions in order to gather information. Open-ended
questionnaire is a question that requires full answer using subjects own knowledge or feeling.

Research Procedure

A questionnaire is being utilized by the researcher's primary served as the data

gathering instrument of the study. The questionnaire is composed of eight items descriptively.
This research instruments consisting of a series of questions in order to gather information,
questionnaire is an organized questions in a logical sequence.

Research Procedure

The research carried out is known as qualitative research. This study intended to collect
data about the effects of covid-19 pandemic in the livelihood of workers in Liloan.

In collecting the data the researchers personally approach the respondent in order to
support the validity of the data. First the researchers conduct the interview and give the
questionnaire to the respondent, Second the researchers gather the data and tally all the
information that given by the respondent. And lastly the result would hopefully be the basis for
the study of the effects of covid-19 pandemic in livelihood of workers in Liloan.
