 ECHOES and PONDER

ACTIVITY 1 | The Worker

Work is on your way. Are you prepared to work? Do you have the potential, character,
talents, and skills to take up the vigor of being a worker? What should you possess to become
a good worker? How will you prepare for work immersion?

As a working student, I have an experience as a worker, but if I were to put myself in

the field of education, I have no idea how it works. But as an immersion student, I am
ready to face the challenges of being a worker that may help me to enhance my skills
and lead me to become a good worker in the near future.
 ACTIVITY 2

After the pre-immersion orientation, list the Do’s and Don’ts employed in the workplace you are
assigned.
DO’s DON’Ts
1.Be on time Be late
2.Proper attire

Reflection

1. Do you agree with the company’s policy guidelines, rules, and agreement? Support your
answer.

Yes, it is very easy to follow, and there are just simple rules for us to understand
professionalism.

2. Was there a rule that you think is not acceptable to you? Why?

-Nothing .
 ACTIVITY 3 | Situational Analysis

CONFIDENTIALITY IN THE WORKPLACE

Suppose you work in a police station or a law firm and signed a confidentiality
agreement regarding all their cases at hand, suddenly your friend who was a suspect to a
crime asked you for some documents that are in your office’s possession that may help him in
his case. How would you deal with the situation?

If I were to work in a police station or any kind of work that handles a lot of
documents, and my friend is asking for a document that may help my friend in his or
her case, I would not allow it because, as a worker, I don’t want to destroy or damage
the image of my workplace. It might lead me to lose my job, and if I were to lose it, of
course they would gossip about me, and it may also affect my image as a worker.

ECHOES and PONDER

SHS Work Immersion Portfolio Page 9

 ACTIVITY 4 | Conflict Resolution

Did you ever experience disagreement and conflict with co-workers? How did you
handle the situation? How would you rate your skills in handling differences of opinion?
Please give an example that illustrates that skill.

If I experience a conflict or a disagreement with my co-workers, I would like to hear

his or her reason, and I will also share my opinion or reason about our conflict. If our
conflict is not settled, I would rather keep my mouth shut.
