Introduction
Street Sweepers are those who are engaged in cleaning the public places
especially in the area of urbanized cities. In our society, street sweeping is considered as
demeaning job as it involves the filth and waste usually the people produced. Often times,
the society neglects them as they are invisible as if their work is significant.
Street Sweeping play an important role in maintaining the cleanliness and hygiene
within the cities. This job exposes the street sweepers to a variety of risk factors such as
dust, toxins, and diesel exhaust pollution, which make them vulnerable to develop certain
occupational diseases. Therefore, it was thought necessary to study the morbidity profile

Street sweepers are really the important in the society. They’re the one who clean
up all the messes in the streets causes by the storm waters, people’s garbage and also
a car vehicle’s accidents mess on the roads/streets. Since sanitation and waste removal
became a priority in some country. Globally some street sweepers are now mechanical
street sweepers wherein people won’t spend a lot of effort to do their jobs. Street
sweepers spend a lot of effort, sweat, energy and time on their work. Though it is their
jobs and they should be doing their jobs, street sweepers however have a case of
problems. Street sweeper’s health are mostly at risk to many illnesses that they may
caught from sweeping on the streets. Also it is so wondering if the salary of those street
sweepers are enough for their family, do they didn’t have any job to fit in or why street
sweeping is their job. Usually street sweepers are at the age of 28 and above. Most of
them didn’t finish their studies that is why they end up to being a street sweeper.
Research Questions
Street sweeper’s major significance is maintaining and clearing the streets especially in
urban area. Street sweepers play an important role for keeping the cities clean. Primarily,
to the working street sweepers most specifically in the Sto. Tomas, this undertaking will
serve as their voice and an avenue for them to air out their sentiments and to share to
the world how they live their lives and how it is to become like them. Secondly, to the
Mayor of concerned Local Government Units (LGUs), the information which will be
revealed in this study give insights to the local chief executives of each city as to
necessary actions that should be considered in uplifting the quality of life of these
vulnerable group of workers. Third, the result of the study may become beneficial and
applicable to the regional office of Department of Labor and Employment since this would
positively turn-out to be an aid for the concerned office to resolve the possibility of lapses
and provision of necessary attention to prompt more sensitive actions, programs and/or
services towards the needs of the workers and hereby facilitate effective employment
mechanism not just limiting to Sto. Tomas but also in all other regions wherein street
workers are present in order to give the dignity of life that they deserve. Lastly, is to
encourage more academic deliberation relevant to the issue and/or concerned subject

that form worker’s aspirations and create the relativity in people’s evaluation - social
relates that people are able to construct aspirations about working conditions by adjusting
their perceptions, making comparison from their past experiences, reference groups,
living and social environment or personal future expectations. However, when individual
is experiencing bad working condition he or she may get used to such contexts and
therefore could adjust perceptions about the lived reality; this is what the author meant
about environmental adaptation. Moreover, to further enrich and extend the theoretical
frame of this study, this study was guided also on a phenomenon called “Satisfaction

Human capital theory. Human capital theory argues that workers with higher skill levels
receive higher compensation because they are more productive. Employee involvement
may require workers with more general skills to perform more complex tasks, which might
result in more rigorous selection and hiring criteria and increase the demand for and
wages of more educated workers. New practices may also require more firm-specific
Compensating differences theory. This theory argues that workers who face
particularly desirable (undesirable) working conditions will receive lower (higher) wages
and job redesign relieve the tedium of traditionally-organized work (Hackman and Oldham
1980), then firms that have it could offer lower wages and workers would not be worse
off. Conversely, if employee involvement requires extra effort and tighter work demands,
Our study focuses on how the street sweepers lived their lives afterall their hard
works yet their salaries are not enough to support their families. How they come up to
that job and how they face their struggles in their lives. This study will be conducted at
Brgy. Tibal-og, Sto. Tomas Davao del Norte on February 7, 2019. The researcher select
this topic to give importance to street sweeper and raise awareness about their status
and their condition about their salaries. We are concern about their salaries and how they
deal with their work and some of their experience and insights as a street sweeper.

dollars. Street sweeping, essentially the operation of large trucks for cleaning street
surfaces, is primarily performed for aesthetic purposes. It is, often perceived to lead to
pollutants deposited on street surfaces from reaching the stormwater system. There is,
however, little available evidence to quantify the extent to which street sweeping can
improve stormwater quality. This report investigates the effectiveness of street sweeping
for stormwater quality improvement. The effectiveness of street sweeping for stormwater
pollution control is examined for two types of pollutants, gross pollutants (> 5 mm) and
indicates a general dearth of studies that address the issues of gross pollutant
for sediment and associated contaminant removal. This study looks at the effectiveness
of street sweeping for gross pollutants using the results of Australian field studies, while
sediment and other suspended solid removal is investigated with interpretation of results
from overseas studies. Experimental studies overseas found street sweeping to be highly
greater than 2 millimetres under test conditions. However, field conditions are expected
to significantly reduce the efficiency of solid removal because of limitations with sweeper
access to source areas (mainly due to street design and car parking), sweeping
mechanisms used and operator skills. Field studies undertaken by the Cooperative
stormwater gross pollutant loads generated from source areas in spite of a daily street
sweeping regime. An earlier CRCCH study, involving analysis of gross pollutant loads
from a 50 hectare urban catchment of mixed residential, commercial and industrial land-
use, found a clear relationship between the gross pollutant load in the stormwater system
and the magnitude of the storm event. The shapes of the curves relating gross pollutant
load to event rainfall and runoff were found to be monotonically increasing and
representable by a logarithmic function. The shape of these curves suggests that the
limiting mechanism affecting the amount of gross pollutants entering the stormwater
system is rainfall dependent (ie. the available energy to re-mobilise and transport
deposited gross pollutants on street surfaces) rather than being source limiting (ie. the

There are two parts to the County's overall street sweeping program: the Department of
Public Works and Transportation (DPWT) program that covers residential roads, arterial
roads, and the Piney Branch Central Business District (CBD) and the CBD Program that
covers the Bethesda, Silver Spring, and Wheaton CBDs. During the year 2000, these two
programs prevented about 2,500 tons of solids from washing into the County's storm
drains, stormwater management facilities, and local waterways. An estimated 348 pounds
of copper, 468 pounds of lead, and 2,371 pounds of zinc was removed in this solid
material and prevented from polluting our waterways. Even though the primary purpose
of the street sweeping program has been to maintain neat roadways, it needs to be
The Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) initiated the current report after
learning that funding for the DPWT street sweeping program had been eliminated from
the FY’02 budget. At that time, the County reported annually to Maryland Department of
the Environment (MDE) on the status of its street sweeping program as a Federal Clean
Water Act permit requirement. The County is one of 10 Maryland jurisdictions that must
comply with the requirements for a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System
(NPDES) Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) permit to control pollutants
Elimination of the DPWT street sweeping program was technically a violation of the
County’s permit. In July 2001, the MDE re-issued the County's permit without the explicit
requirement for reporting on street sweeping activities. Instead, the County is now being
maintenance activities, to develop a plan for reducing pollutants from these activities, and
to annually report on implementation status of the pollution reduction plan. This plan
should include countywide street sweeping. To maximize pollutant material at the lowest
possible cost, the DPWT should evaluate its existing schedule for street sweeping and
amount of materials removed by the greatest detailed data available (by district, by road,
by season). This information should then be used to develop
a written plan, schedule, and periodic re-evalution for street sweeping that would target:
! those roadways with contributing land uses (high level of impervious, high level of
industrial activity) that would be expected to show high pollutant concentrations and
The effectiveness of street sweeping as a source control measure for stormwater pollution
was tested at a site in Toronto, using three types of sweepers employed by the City. A
paired-plot experimental design was employed along an arterial road with a traffic volume
of 26,000 vehicles/day. Typically, after several days of dry weather, one roadway plot was
swept by the available sweeper (treated) and the following plot was left unswept (control).
After sweeping, sediment on the roadway was sampled on both plots; wet samples were
collected by washing off one half of each plot, and dry samples were collected by vacuum
cleaning the remaining halves of both plots. Differences between swept and unswept
plots were assessed by comparing: (a) conventional sediment quality parameters, total
residue mass, and particle sizes for dry sediment samples, and (b) toxicity, conventional
water quality parameters, and particle sizes in wet samples. Results were highly variable
and contained large uncertainties. The greatest environmental benefits of sweeping were
the reduction of the total mass of sediment on road surfaces and a reduction in some
Street sweepers play important roles for keeping the cities clean. Their works
entail removing of debris from streets, collecting solid waste, disposing and recycling
waste material. Consequently, they have higher chances to be exposed to numerous risk
factors; therefore, their occupational safety and health hazard became crucial. There is
little evidence about the sweeping practices, perceptions and knowledge on their
occupational safety and health hazards. The objective of the study is to explore current
sweeping practices, perceived risk and the level of knowledge of a group of street
sweepers of Dhaka city. Methods: An explorative qualitative research design was used.
We conducted 15 IDIs, 8 KIIs and 5 FGDs with Telegu street sweepers, community and
religious leaders and NGO workers in two different sweeper colonies in Dhaka City.
Results: Due to the manual handling process, the street sweepers are often exposed to
a variety of risks factors – exhaust fumes, extreme noise, toxic substances and dust
particles. Frequent infections and injuries were reported commonly as they lack basic
safety equipment’s during works. Low perceived health hazards were prevalent. Strong

Environmentalism. Our planet, Earth, is just as much our home, but we don’t look after
it anything like as well. We use its resources, we pollute it with trash, we plunder with our
neighbors (other animals and plants) without care, and we give little or no thought to what
things will be in the future, never mind what shapes will be in for our children. So let’s

Low income. Millions of Filipinos remained poor not because they are jobless, but
because they have low incomes, according to the World Bank. Filipinos nowadays are
getting low income despite of what their jobs are. It might be hard or easy yet some of

“The Philippines needs not necessarily more jobs, but better jobs. And one striking
fact is that since 2000, real wages, meaning the wages adjusted for the increase in the
cost of living, have remained flat. They have not increased and this is a very strong
contrast to wage increases in other Asean countries, which saw a very strong wage
growth.” Said by Jan Rutkowski, the World Bank lead economist. He also added that
those in the informal sector, those who have no contracts or those looking for additional
sources of income.
Difficult Job. Having a hard job is very common in working areas and women, perhaps all of us
might say that our jobs or all the jobs that exist in this world are difficult. But you need to wake up
into the reality that there are jobs that is really difficult to deal with.

Some jobs involve a particularly high degree of stress. One theory, known as
the job demand-control (JDC) model, posits that high degrees of work stress are
prevalent in jobs with many demands and little control over working conditions. Some
jobs that are known to be particularly stressful include firefighter, airline pilot, enlisted
military personnel, police officer, and event coordinator. Additionally, some jobs such
as healthcare worker, teacher, social worker, and administrative support worker have

Coping Mechanism
Sideline Jobs. The benefits of having side lines are apparently you can make more
money than you usually would, it simply improves your cash flow. This is what other
workers do if their income to their jobs are not enough to support the needs of their family.

“Side hustle” or “sideline” in some case, is increasingly becoming a common term among
young Filipinos. To put it simple, a side hustle is a source of income that isn’t someone’s
primary occupation or employment. For example, you could be working at an office as an
accountant during the day and by night, a freelance graphic designer during your spare
cash. College students might budget to figure out how to make do with their high
expenses and limited incomes and minimize how much they need to borrow. Young
adults who are supporting themselves for the first time create budgets to make sure
savings, student loan repayments, rent and utilities, and rewards for their hard work like

A budget will help you plan for short-term expenses such as your monthly bills;
mid-term expenses such as vacations; and long-term expenses such as buying a house,
paying for a child’s college education or putting away money for retirement. When you
have an app, spreadsheet or notebook in front of you showing how much money you
expect to make over the one month, six months, one year or five years — and how much
of that money will be flowing out and how much you will have left to save each month —
you’ll always know when you need to cut back on spending, when you can afford to loosen
the reins and how long it will take to save for major goals or pay off debts (Amy Fontinelle).

You always want to allow enough time to recover fully but not so much time that
you lose the gains you’ve made. Resting is just as important as working out because it’s

Insights
Proper Waste Disposal. Whether you are simply cleaning out your home or
investing in a major renovation project, proper waste disposal is important for both the
environmental and public health. Many of the Filipinos are taking for granting the waste
disposal. They do not think about what will be the result of what they are doing. They
even not think about their health with the surroundings that is so unhealthy for humans.

The study will be connected to this theories, the first theory is attachment theory
anchored by Bowlby 1969, The theory stated that the attachment is a deep and enduring
emotional bond that connects one person to another across time and space. Attachment
does not have to be reciprocal. One person may have an attachment to an individual
behavior in adults towards the child includes responding sensitively and appropriately to
the child's needs. Such behavior appears universal across cultures. Attachment theory
explain how the parent -child relationship emerges and influences subsequent
development.
Attachment theory in psychology originates with the seminal work of John Bowlby
human beings", Psychologists have proposed two main theories that are believed to be
of learned behaviors. The basis for the learning of attachments is the provision of food.
An infant will initially form an attachment to whoever feeds it. Bowlby suggested that a
child would initially form only one primary attachment and that the attachment figure acted
as a secure base for exploring the world. The attachment relationship acts aa a prototype
for all future social relationship so disrupting it can have severe consequences.
This theory also suggests that there is a critical period for developing an
attachment (about 0-5 years). If an attachment has not developed during this period, then
the child will suffer from irreversible developmental consequences such as reduced
And the second theory is Parental theory anchored by Baurmind 1991, the theory
stated that for the importance of parenting with the long -term implication for children,
families and society there is precious little psychological theory specifically on parents
and parent development. And while there are many parental education programs
available and certainly substantial research on parents, none are based on an overall
theoretical model regarding who parents are and how they develop in relation to the
parenting role. This article provides a theoretical framework, the Parent Development
Theory (PDT) to assist professionals in organizing their thinking practice and research
regarding parenting.
understand. Since it is through this role that individuals perceive what parenting involves
and consequently parent children. Therefore, the Parent Development Theory defines
who parent are examines the parent role individuals play, clarifies how parents and
parenting develop and change over time and explains how the parent roles relates to
parenting activities. Mowder suggested that the Parent role is one key to understanding
parents since the role is performed by individuals who create the role as well as respond
to role demands.
The parent role is partially an individual creation in that people conceptualize parenting
understanding. But while part of the role is individually thought about shape and refined
other aspects are externally imposed like legal requirements in socially well -developed
countries regarding children's protection and welfare. Parents perceptions of their role are
not only affected by their own developmental experiences changes and needs but also
by their changing growing and developing child. In addition, Lorine suggested that the
parent’s religious orientation for example potentially affects parent’s perceptions of their
