Abstract

The goal of this study was to look at the role that time management had in mediating the relationship between work ethics and professionalism among 310 teachers in the Magsaysay South and North District of the Division of Davao del Sur. The descriptive correlation technique was used in this study’s non-experimental design. This statistical tools used were mean, Pearson r, and path analysis using AMOS. Research instruments on time management, work ethics and professionalism which were validated were used as sources of data. Results showed that the level of work ethics of teachers is generally described as high. Similarly, their level of professionalism indicated a high rating. Likewise, their level of time management is mostly high. Using Pearson r, the results revealed that there are significant relationships between work ethics and time management, time management and professionalism, and work ethics and professionalism. Utilizing path analysis, the results of the study revealed that there is partial mediation on the effect of time management on the relationship between work ethics and professionalism. Moreover, it is significantly pointed out that about 53 percent of the total effect of the time management on the professionalism goes through the mediator variable, work ethics and about 47 percent of the total effect is either or mediated by other variables not included in the model. This implies that work ethics influences time management which in turn influences professionalism.
