hundred (1,600) senior high school graduates last April 2019. Due to the number of
students enrolled in all different strands whether Accounting and Business Management

Mathematics (STEM), this drives high demand of teaching staffs to cater all students.
Currently there are one hundred twenty (120) senior high school teachers both regular
and part time providing learning to all classes, with an average of thirty five students per
class.
The average class population may be enough for a teacher to present their
learning materials effectively but a section that reaches up to forty two (42) students can
exhaust the teacher. In ABM Strand alone there are five (5) sections that reached this

population per class. A vigorous effort must be executed in order to discipline and teach
the students, including the technique the teacher uses in accommodating class
challenge. But, despite of the obstacles, teachers are able to perform well on their lesson
plans in their class, as an evidence all advisers and subject teachers have submitted the

CHAPTER II
Executives about “Managing Corporate Culture through Reward Systems 2005”, they
believe that “the reward system represents a particular powerful means for influencing an
organizational culture. Much of the substance of culture is concerned with controlling the
behaviours and attitudes of organizational members”. This also means that reward system
is a motivational driver to employees of the organization that will affect much their
productivity.
“Of course, large corporations with several different businesses may have
multiple reward systems. And while they may share some fundamental philosophies and
values, they may differ according to the particular business setting, competitive
situations, and product life cycle.” Jose Rizal University is an academic institution
consisting faculty members and administrative support, although this study focus on the
faculty members such as the subject teachers, class advisers, head teachers, strand core
officers, club advisers and the principal – multiple reward system may be observed.
“Two kinds of reward systems – Kerr and Slocum identified these distinct
systems as; the hierarchy-based system and the performance-based system. Eight firms in
their study are classified as hierarchy-based and six as performance based” It is very

On the other hand, the study of Lawler suggests that there are different
behavioural impacts that a reward system may influence an individual such as attraction
towards applicants and retention which states that reward system may increase or
decrease applications and retention, motivation and performance which express that
reward system inspire employees and may increase their productivity, Performance-

findings may help JRU-SHS on how they will increase a more intrinsic motivation

awards. This study will also help enlighten the researcher in the relationship between

The frequency of giving rewards can be once every semester and another once a
year after school year is done. This is due to the busy schedule of the faculty members
during the school term. Simple reward system however can be very frequent for
supervisors such as tapping and recognizing the faculty member can be done every day.
Ceremonial Rewards
Promotion
The university can provide levels of tenure such as teacher 1, teacher 2 depending
on the system the university would wish to implement. This will provide classes in the
faculty members and promotion can however motivate them and increase their
productivity.
Supervisors and the principal can take out a faculty member to a restaurant to eat
together and have informal conversations can be a rewarding experience for them, group
get together other than the team building can also be rewarding for teachers.
