The document summarizes a study that created a GIS-based employment profile system for barangays in Digos City, Philippines. The system displays employment indicator levels (low, medium, high) on a map. It also shows population data, education levels, sectors, and employable age brackets for each barangay. The purpose is to provide useful information to help minimize unemployment. Testing showed the system's objectives were achieved by displaying the employment indicators and related data. Regular system maintenance and updates are needed to keep the data accurate and prevent loss over time. The profile system could help the government create effective employment programs for the barangays.

1. Executive Summary
The success and development of a country depends upon the
people living within. Hence, the socio-economic status of the
country is measured upon a person's work experience and of an
individual's or familys economic and social position in
relation to others, based on income, education, and occupation
(Goode, 2008). Thus, providing an employment profile in a place
is one way to solve the underlying problem of unemployment
within the country.
In this project, the researchers made a system that
produces a GIS-Based Based for an Employment Profile. It
displays the employment indicator as to Low, Medium and High
level indicators for Cluster 1 barangays in Digos City. The
system also displays information such as Barangays total
population, educational attainment, type of sector, and
employable age bracket.
The main purpose of the study is to give a useful and
informative web-based online program that is built through GIS-
based map. It is also made in helping the retrieval and updating
of employment records for the use of the Department of Labor and
Employment and the National Statistics Office. Through this, it
will create solutions as how to minimize the unemployment rate
of the specific barangays in Cluster 1.
In this system, it shows that the above objectives were
attained through and by beta testing initiated by the
researchers. This also resulted into what is expected of the
system. That is to display a map of the barangays within Cluster
1 with an Employment indicator of Low, Medium and High. This
also let the user aware on the employable age of every barangay
2. in relation to its total population. Moreso, the study shows
that some of the barangays have low indicators in their
employable rate since they have higher number of unemployable
population.
However, in order for the system to continue and give
correct results, a system maintenance has to be made monthly so
that the efficacy of the system be maintained and protect it
from data loss. Added to this, the systems website has to be
maintained so that it will serve its purpose.
Overall, this system can make way for the government to
create a sustainable program on employment to ease the
unemployment rate of the specified barangays.
