The study was conducted to determine the effects of Foreign Direct Investment on Employment and Labor Productivity in the Philippines from 1999 to 2018. The study used casual descriptive research design. The data used were twenty year annual data of overall and sectoral FDI, employment, labor productivity, , and gross domestic product from 1999 to 2018. The study used Ordinary Least Square to test the relationship of FDI and employment and labor productivity nd the relationship of their sectors. The researchers used Augmented Dickey Fuller unit root test to determine the stationarity of the variables. The performance of FD! showed fluctuation from 1999 to 2018. The industry sector had the largest FDI inflow followed by the service sector and agricultural sector. Employment performed an increasing trend with service sector as the largest contributor, followed by agriculture sector. Labor productivity showed an increasing overall performance with industry as the highest contributor and agriculture sector with lowest productivity due to economic factors. Gross Domestic Product presented an increasing performance with service sector as the highest contributor. : Regression results showed that FDI had a significant effect on service sector and on the total number of employment using natural log values. While it has no significant effect on agriculture and industry sector since effects of FDI may differ from one industry to another. On the other hand, regression results of labor productivity and FD! using natural log values showed that FDI had a significant relationship on labor productivity and its sectors. The researcher also used the actual values of dependent and the independent variable and same results were obtained. FDI showed positive relationship on employment and labor productivity.

Regression results showed that FDI had a significant effect on service sector and on the total number of employment using natural log values.
