ABSTRACT
This study examines perceptions of behavioral, organizational, structural, and decision-making changes within the Schools Division of Cavite City, analyzing variations across demographic groups, including gender, age, job classification, and years in service. Using descriptive statistics, independent samples t-tests, one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), and Tukey Honest Significant Difference (HSD) post hoc tests, the research identifies trends in how employees experience and interpret workplace transformations. The findings indicate that respondents generally perceive these changes positively, with collaboration, communication, adaptability, leadership support, and technology adoption playing crucial roles in enhancing organizational efficiency. Gender and job classification significantly influence perceptions, with females reporting higher agreement in behavioral and organizational changes, and teaching professionals experiencing greater structural and decision-making changes compared to related teaching personnel. In contrast, age and years of service do not significantly impact perceptions, reinforcing that leadership, structured frameworks, and institutional policies have a greater influence on acceptance than demographic factors. The study concludes that institutional change efforts are widely accepted and contribute to workplace efficiency and professional growth. However, variations in perceptions across job classifications and gender groups suggest the need for targeted interventions to support equitable adaptation. Based on the findings, recommendations include strengthening accountability mechanisms, tailoring change strategies for different job classifications, improving stakeholder participation in decision-making, expanding training initiatives, and leveraging digital tools for governance optimization. Implementing these recommendations can enhance institutional reforms, sustain employee engagement, and foster long-term organizational success within the Schools Division of Cavite City. Future research may explore qualitative assessments of change adaptation, incorporating employee narratives and experiences to complement the statistical findings.
