This study was conducted to determine the levels of aspirations and productivity of DAR employees in Trece Martires City. Specifically, the study aimed to determine the socio demographic characteristics of the employees; the employees’ aspirations for themselves, their children, family life, livelihood, and community life; the relationship between some socio-demographic characteristics and the levels of aspirations and productivity; whether the employees’ levels of aspirations is correlated with their levels of productivity. Personal interviews were conducted with 61 employees of DAR using interview schedules to gather the pertinent data. Frequency counts, percentages, means and standard deviations were used to describe the general characteristics of the employees and to summarize the data. Chi — square tests were used to determine the significant relationships between socio -demographic characteristics and levels of aspirations and productivity using five percent level of significance. The Pearson Product- Moment Correlation was used to determine if the levels of aspirations and productivity are correlated. Most of the respondents of DAR were female (77 %), married (75 %), and had a mean age of 40.04 with the standard deviation of 10.66. Almost 96 % of the respondents obtained a relatively high level of schooling. The average number of children was two, with a standard deviation of two. The average household size of the respondents was five with a standard deviation of three. Majority of the respondents (85 %) were separated from their parents. The respondents had an average years in service of 14 years and a standard deviation of 10.33. Respondents’ aspiration for themselves were to increase income, have their own business, be promoted to higher position and to be educated, because they wanted to provide all the needs of their family. Respondents’ aspirations for their children were to be educated, to give them better nutrition, to enable their children to be at par with other children and to give them better nutrition. This was because the respondents wanted their children to experience a better life and so they would become better individuals. Respondents’ aspirations for family life was to have adequate income, have permanent residence, to be in good health, and to be a model family. This was because they wanted to provide all the needs of all the members of the family. The respondents’ aspirations for livelihood were to increase production and income, to save for the better future, to own a piece of land and to improve social standing. This was because they wanted to have sufficient money for the future of all the members of the family. The respondents’ aspirations for community life were to have health services, good roads and adequate transportation/facilities and to have good schools and other educational facilities. This was because they wanted members of the community to experience a better life and be given a chance to improve their standard of living. Generally, most of the respondents had high levels of aspirations for themselves, family life, livelihood, and community life while there was a very high aspiration for their children. Results of chi- square tests indicated that at five percent level of significance, all socio -demographic characteristics such as gender, age, civil status, educational attainment, number of children, household size, type of household and number of years in service had no significant relationships with the productivity of the employees. The Pearson Product — Moment Correlation revealed that respondents’ aspirations for themselves, their children, family life, livelihood, and community life had very small positive correlation with the productivity of the employees. As the levels of aspirations increased, so did the levels of productivity, however the correlation between the two variables was only minimal. It is, therefore, recommended that a more comprehensive research should be conducted in DAR offices in order to generate more conclusive data regarding DAR mployees’ levels of productivity and aspirations.

The Pearson Product- Moment Correlation was used to determine if the levels of aspirations and productivity are correlated.

Most of the respondents of DAR were female (77 %), married (75 %), and had a mean age of 40.04 with the standard deviation of 10.66. Almost 96 % of the respondents obtained a relatively high level of schooling. The average number of children was two, with a standard deviation of two. The average household size of the respondents was five with a standard deviation of three. Majority of the respondents (85 %) were separated from their parents.

Respondents’ aspiration for themselves were to increase income, have their own business, be promoted to higher position and to be educated, because they wanted to provide all the needs of their family. Respondents’ aspirations for their children were to be educated, to give them better nutrition, to enable their children to be at par with other children and to give them better nutrition.

This was because they wanted members of the community to experience a better life and be given a chance to improve their standard of living.

Generally, most of the respondents had high levels of aspirations for themselves, family life, livelihood, and community life while there was a very high aspiration for their children.

Results of chi- square tests indicated that at five percent level of significance, all socio -demographic characteristics such as gender, age, civil status, educational attainment, number of children, household size, type of household and number of years in service had no significant relationships with the productivity of the employees.

The Pearson Product — Moment Correlation revealed that respondents’ aspirations for themselves, their children, family life, livelihood, and community life had very small positive correlation with the productivity of the employees. As the levels of aspirations increased, so did the levels of productivity, however the correlation between the two variables was only minimal.

It is, therefore, recommended that a more comprehensive research should be conducted in DAR offices in order to generate more conclusive data regarding DAR
mployees’ levels of productivity and aspirations.
