Nature of the 2/3 x 1  0.67

gathered, 53% of the respondents do not have
regular work and 100% of the household’s income
range falls under low middle income which means
that they earn below 46, 761 pesos monthly. 

Magnitude of 4/4 x 3 3 100% of the population is affected by this problem

the Problem since according to the survey, their range of
income is below 3,000 pesos, in between, or more
than 30, 000 pesos. Based on the data sourced
from the 2018 Family and Income Expenditure
Survey conducted by the Philippine Statistics
Authority, the range of monthly family income
(for a family size of 5 members), is 46, 761 pesos
below, which indicates that the portion of the
respondents belong to lower middle income, low

respectively.

Modifiability 2/3 x 4
of the Problem
2.67 In connection with the data from the source of
income and the income the respondents earn 
every month, finding a suitable solution would be
moderate, for there is a high possibility of an
increase of income or chance to have an income
for those who are unemployed, if a suited
livelihood can be given  to or found by the
families in the community. 
Preventive 2/3 x 1 0.67 Based on the collected data, approximately 1/3rd
Potential of the population is unemployed and is looking for
money or helping out the breadwinner of the
family. There is moderate preventive potential
because sources of income through jobs can be
found but vary depending on demand, time,
personal family circumstances (i.e. if there are
dependent members such as children), and work
qualifications. 

Social 2/2 x 1 1 This is considered as an urgent social concern

Concern since during the interview with the household
members, many of them kept on telling the
interviewers to mention to their local barangay
that they should come up with livelihood
programs that can help them start small businesses
to have a stable source of income since only
43.35% of the community have regular status of
work.
