 SERVICE
- Directs social worker to go beyond
purely performing a service for a pay
and allow them to be generous with
their time.
- Their work borders on charity and
professional service.
 COMPASSION
• Considered as an important value for
all humankind but in social work, it is
the basis for someone to go out and
become a voice to the voiceless and
a friend to the people who need it
most.
 COMPETENCE
• Is a very important value for social
work because it separates social
caregiving from social work
professional practice.
 Dignity and worth of
the person
• Provides the determination and
drive for social workers to seek the
marginalized in all forms without
much regard as to whether such
problem is self- inflicted or socially
imposed. In the heart of social work
is the belief that all humans have
dignity and worth regardless of their
acts and status in life.
 IMPORTANCE OF HUMAN
RELATIONSHIP
• As a value, makes it possible for
social workers to do their job as
most human situations they seek
to address require collaborating
with so many other professionals
and individuals with a stake in
the issue.
• Social work is all about
relationship.
 REFLECTION PAPER NO. 2

worker by profession in the
future? Yes or No? Why?
• What particular core values of
social work that you are willing to
apply in your life? Why?
 SEATWORK (CASE STUDY)
• Shancai is a newcomer at the senior high school
program of FEBIHS. Being a new to the school, she
observed to be silent and avoids interaction in
groups very often. Three months after, the situation
remains the same as she still finds difficulty building
relationships. She prefers to eat, to study and walk
alone. Bothered by the situation of Shancai, her
adviser in class referred the case to school’s social
worker. If you are the social worker, how will you
handle the case? What core values and principles
are you going to apply? How will you manage the
situation?
