Executive Summary

The success and development of a country depends upon the

people living within. Hence, the socio-economic status of the

country is measured upon a person's work experience and of an

individual's or family’s economic and social position in relation

to others, based on income, education, and occupation (Goode,

2008). Thus, providing an employment profile in a place is one

way to solve the underlying problem of unemployment within the

country.

In this project, the researchers made a system that produces

a GIS-Based Based for an Employment Profile. It displays the

employment indicator as to Low, Medium and High level indicators

for Cluster 1 barangays in Digos City. The system also displays

information such as Barangay’s total population, educational

attainment, type of sector, and employable age bracket.

The main purpose of the study is to give a useful and

informative web-based online program that is built through GIS-

based map. It is also made in helping the retrieval and updating

of employment records for the use of the Department of Labor and

Employment and the National Statistics Office. Through this, it

will create solutions as how to minimize the unemployment rate of

the specific barangays in Cluster 1.

In this system, it shows that the above objectives were

attained through and by beta testing initiated by the

researchers. This also resulted into what is expected of the

system. That is to display a map of the barangays within Cluster

1 with an Employment indicator of Low, Medium and High. This also

let the user aware on the employable age of every barangay in

relation to its total population. Moreso, the study shows that

some of the barangays have low indicators in their employable

rate since they have higher number of unemployable population.

However, in order for the system to continue and give

correct results, a system maintenance has to be made monthly so

that the efficacy of the system be maintained and protect it from

data loss. Added to this, the system’s website has to be

maintained so that it will serve its purpose.

Overall, this system can make way for the government to

create a sustainable program on employment to ease the

unemployment rate of the specified barangays.
