Abstract
This research attempts to find evidence from resort employees’ perspectives on the environmental pollution and environmental citizenship of Matabungkay, Lian, Batangas. The researchers utilized a descriptive-comparative study and adapted a survey questionnaire. The study applied the T-test and ANOVA in the data analyses. This quantitative research study described the perception of environmental pollutants and the environmental citizenship of the resort employees in Matabungkay, Lian, Batangas. Matabungkay was the favored excursion spot for families and friends in the early 2000s. However, its quality suffered due to the misuse of the environment and its lack of protection by the residents. The study’s findings show that among the Environmental Pollutants indicators, only Exposure to Disease has a significant difference with the Place of residence regardless of a resident or non-resident of Barangay Matabungkay. It was also evident that those employees’ employment status with regular and probationary periods significantly differed with exposure to disease. Employees whose years of service range from 0-3 years and 7-9 years were also significant with exposure to disease. Among the indicators of Environmental Citizenship, it significantly differs with Sex, both females and males, upon a post-hoc analysis. While Environmental Sensitivity, an indicator of Environmental Citizenship, was significantly different with Place of Residence regardless of the employees were residents or non-residents of Barangay Matabungkay. The local Government Unit should regularly monitor the cleanliness and upkeep of every Barangay Matabungkay resort. This way, it can protect the environment, community, and people and bring more local and foreign tourists. The resort employees should maintain good practices by intensifying the proper Waste Segregation to protect public health and the environment brought by environmental pollutants. Moreover, the resort should regularly orient their employees on how environmental pollutants harm guests, the community, and Matabungkay Beach Resort. Also, the Local Government Unit must strictly impose ordinances and create ordinances that benefit the resort owners and the community.
