Borromeo, Robertino Gerardo P. Morante, John Matthew N. Taccad, Julius Gabriel M. Shabu or methamphetamine hydrochloride is the most abused drug in the Philippines. The public perceives individuals that underwent rehabilitation as unfit to be productive in any line of work even after rehabilitation, which minimizes the chances of these individuals to be re-integrated back into society as employers refuse to hire them. Even with shabu eliciting a large number of negative effects like anxiety and fatigue, it still remains to be largely utilized because of the extended number of work hours that it grants the individual when under its influence. The study, however, contests the aforementioned stigma with its findings. A total of 79 underclass males aged 18 and above and currently working in rehabilitation centers in Metro Manila were grouped into two, those that underwent rehabilitation in the past and those who did not. The Lam employment absence and productivity scale (LEAPS) was used to measure the work productivity and independent samples t-test was utilized for the analysis. The results show that the work productivity of the two groups are not significantly different from each other. Meaning, being an individual with a history of substance use that underwent rehabilitation does not dictate that the said individual will perform less as opposed to an individual with no history of the drug abuse. The study could benefit both individuals who finished treatment for methamphetamine and as well as employers since it shows that any history of drug use of rehabilitation will not impair productivity. 2019-01-01T08:00:00Z text https://animorepository.dlsu.edu.ph/etd_bachelors/6738 Bachelor's Theses English Animo Repository Drug addicts--Rehabilitation Rehabilitation--Psychological aspects Drug addiction--Philippines Substance abuse--Philippines
