Abstract

Almost every people in the world is now using digital tools, even kids, students, teachers and

employees rely on it, and most of the time we are using digital tools that we don’t know that we

are abusing it, that we are depending on it most of the time. This study focuses on the

productivity of the employees on the workplace when using digital tools and does it make the

workplace less productive. The following data that we gathered in this study will serve as

evidence if the workplace will become less productive in using digital tools.

We retrieved data in the form of scholarly articles related to our research and use as reference for

the progress of the study. We conduct an interview and present five (5) questions to the

respondent and that is the Manager. She gave information about how digital tools make the

workplace less productive that why we select respondents that can represent to our study.

The result show that using digital tools of the employees(workers) will greatly improve the

productivity of the workplace and make all of the work easier and faster to finished, proving that

making use of digital tools will not make the workplace less productive.

 CHAPTER I

INTRODUCTION

Background of the study

This chapter focuses on the data needs and measurements challenges associated with the

emerging digital economy. We must start, however, by defining what we mean by the digital

economy. The dramatic growth of what is being called electronic commerce (e-commerce) has

been facilitated by the expansion of access to computers and the internet in workplaces, homes,

and schools. There is a broad consensus that computers and the internet are producing rapid

changes in how goods and services are produce, the nature of the goods and services being

offered, and the means by which good and service are bought to market. We view the emergence

of e-commerce, however, as part of a broad spectrum of changes in the structure of the economy

related to developments extending over several decades if information technology (IT). U.S.
statistical agencies are still addressing the challenge of measuring the changes brought on by the

IT revolution. For measurement purposes, the challenges brought on by the growth of e-

commerce are closely linked to those brought on by advances in IT. The banking sector provides

a good examples of the problems confronting statistical agencies. The IT revolution has led to

the introduction of new services such as electronic banking and ATMs. Statistical agencies have

struggled with how to define and measure output in baking for years, and the IT revolution has

done in IT occurred, especially in service industries, such as banking, that had particularly large

IT investments. A number of studies, at various levels of aggregation, failed to find the link

between IT investments and productivity, leading to the identification of a “productivity

paradox” (Solow 1987; Berndt and Morrison 1995; for a review of the literature on the link

between IT investments and productivity see Brynolfsson and Yang 1996).

Digital tools is a computer that is often used in Companies such as SSS, PAG-IBIG and

municipalities. Like us, we are dependent in computers because of its advantageous effect in our

generation and because of its benefits, wetend to abuse to its intention. Hence, employees tend

to be less productive and being abusive of using digital computers.

Statement of the Problem

As with many digital tools, electricity and internet connectivity will make or break

productivity. But sometimes the power goes out or the Internet goes down. Such

technical errors can have calamitous effects on the employee who has failed to

save their progress or the manager about to deliver a presentation. Short of

investing in a generator, these problems may not always be easily solved. The best

thing you can do to limit the fallout is to have backups when possible.

https://theundercoverrecruiter.com/digital-tools-productivity/

The reason why people are being complacent is because it is easy to acquire and to

study. Employees are being dependent and eventually become bombarded, having

cramming’s and their assigned work. It affects the performance of the Company
and the employee decreases its level of excitement and slowly destroys the

importance of the digital use as the helper of our every lives. In conclusion, we are

the one who is responsible for taking control of this digital tools, not the digital

tools who controls us indeed.

Significance of the study

This study proves that employees are becoming lazy in terms of their performance

because they tend to abuse, becoming bombarded in their work, in other words

they become less productive in the Company because of their abusive actions.

Furthermore, we search for the effect of having computers in workplace, effect of

digitals tools to employers why there are becoming less productive.

Scope and Delimitation

This study will conduct at the City of Malabon.The possible participants for our

study are the Companies that are involved in using more on computer.

Benefits and Beneficiaries

Ofcourse the benefits of computers create big impact in workplace, employees

become more excited to finish their job because of hassle-less in using the digital

tools, they easily acquire basic ways in manipulating the computers. Hence,

employee’s performance become active and it builds up the Companies goal to be

successful in business industry. Meanwhile, the target beneficiaries of this is one

who is involved in the company. Employees who give time for their job and o of

course, the Company itself who represents as a whole.

BENEFITS AND BENEFICIARIES (Future Researchers)

Students – they are the ones who get information in the internet such as google.

Teachers – educators who uses internet to be able to get information needed by the students.

Employees – who are using digital tool to make their task easier and convenient.

Future researcher – in case they will gather information regarding digital tools study, they can

get ideas, notions about their study.

CHAPTER II

(David, 1990-1991) Acknowledge that, the general purpose engines, the vertical

wind mill, steam engines, the electrical dynamo, internal combustion engines and

transition. This will be a hassle-free and also in a cheap price. These engines will

help all works and all workers in their work field, so that they can finish the

products, or job easily and better with the materials. This engine enhances skills

and make new inventions from workers to a finish product. Digital computing

engine is much easier to use that than the purpose engines only that were invented.
This digital computing engine and general purpose engine, transform and change

the economy by making and inventing a new application, tools and new programs

to help the economy to improve.

The purpose of engines and technology is to help the economy and to improve the

industrial works. But peoples or workers are abuse our technologies and engines,

their depend they life to our to our engines and technologies, so that they were lazy

to make by their hand made works or make by their own. That’s what the effects of

technologies and engines to our life, if we use right or abused. (Solow, 1978)

Claims that, there is so many computers in the world, to use in our daily activities

or just to have fun. Computer change our mind and our practices, there’s a quick

change in our world with clicks of mouse and types of keyboard. The workers

depend on technology then what’s happen now, or what they do if there’s no

internet connection and there’s no power for the technologies? That’s the big

questions?
(Productive Learning Abstract) By discussing and teaching knowledge, productive

learning form, productive learning relates to capture and reuse because when you

have knowledge and you share it to Athens. Productive learning is formed and the

mentor can have a different idea about this knowledge based on his/her

observation on the one his/her teaching, because of this new knowledge transfer

there’s also a possibility that It will become a knowledge creation and resulting to

invented easy-to-use.

Productive learning is defined as learning that can be reused, in application to new

problem situations in an organization or for assimilation and reflection in structure

learning situations such as courses.

David (1990-1991) – was less ambitions, but also focused specifically upon the
economic aspects of the initial phases of the transition dynamics that might

contribute to (measured among outputs of the economy) growth in the economy at

large, whereas that other emphasizes that in the transition process itself resources

are devote to purposes that escape being properly measured among the output of

economy.

This is no conflict because the transition dynamics that might contribute to slowing

the measured growth industrial productivity – one is concerned to show that lags in

the (acceleration of productivity) diffusion process involving a general purpose

technology can result in long delays in the acceleration of productivity.

(Solow,1978) claims that the skill of a human was field because on the electronic

gadgets they said the performance of the human was stopping the skills of a man

and it cause to be less productive in the workplace. Because in our years from now
the electronic device they make easy done the paper works, cause on the

technology itself. We know all this year’s most of the gadgets is electronic and the

works may easily make because of technology.

Moreover, the rise of a new techno-economic paradigm can have dislocating,

backwash effects upon the performance of surviving elements of previous.

Abstract

Whilst organizations accept that effective information management (IM) is now

crucial to information/knowledge worker productivity and organizational

performance, the continued dramatic growth in information volumes has not been

accompanied by increased information management capability. This is the case for

both data and unstructured information. At the same time the consumerization of

technology, growth in social media, and expectations of the work environment are

resulting in pressure on IT and IM functions to deliver information and information

tools via multiple channels/devices and simple interfaces. This article charts the

evolution of views on the digital workplace and the drivers that now render this an

essential strategic direction for organizations. The desirable features of the digital

workplace can be achieved now through integration of four technologies – mobile;

big data; cloud computing and search-based applications – and with a focus on

developing for the mobile environment. Providing this environment could

transform the way in which work is accomplished both in terms of individual and

organizational productivity and competitiveness. Understanding organizations

through an ethnological and cultural perspective will be essential to the design and

management of this transformation.

Digital Technology and the Productivity Paradox:

After Ten Years, What Has Been Learned?

1. The “Computer Revolution” and the Economy

Over the past forty years, computers have evolved from a specialized and limited

role in the information processing and communication processes of modern

organizations to become a general purpose tool that can be found in use virtually

everywhere, although not everywhere to the same extent. Whereas once

"electronic computers" were large machines surrounded by peripheral equipment

and tended by specialized technical staff working in specially constructed and air

conditioned centers, today computing equipment is to be found on the desktops and

work areas of secretaries, factory workers and shipping clerks, often side by side

with the telecommunication equipment linking organizations to their suppliers and

customers. In the process, computers and networks of computers have become an

integral part of the research and design operations of most enterprises and,

increasingly, an essential tool supporting control and decision-making at both

middle and top management levels. In the latter half of this fortyyear revolution,

microprocessors allowed computers to escape from their 'boxes', embedding

information processing in a growing array of artefacts as diverse as greeting cards

and automobiles and thus extending the 'reach' of this technology well beyond its traditional

boundaries.

Changes attributed to this technology include new patterns of work organization and worker

productivity, job creation and loss, profit and loss of companies, and, ultimately, prospects for

economic growth, national security and the quality of life. (Genetic engineering may one day

inherit this mantle.) Not since the opening of “the atomic age,” with its promises of power too

cheap to meter and threats of nuclear incineration, has a technology so deeply captured the

imagination of the public. It is not surprising, therefore, that perceptions about this technology

are shaping public policies in areas as diverse as education and macroeconomic management.

One indication of the wider importance of the issues motivating the research presented in this

volume can be read in their connection with the rhetoric, and, arguably, the substance of U.S.

monetary policy responses to the remarkable economic expansion that has marked the 1990's.

For a number of years in mid-decade the Federal Reserve Board Chairman, Alan Greenspan,

subscribed publicly to a strongly optimistic reading of the American economy's prospects for

sustaining rapid expansion and rising real incomes without generating unhealthy inflationary

pressures. His conviction that monetary tightening was not called for by the signs of accelerating

output growth and new lows in the unemployment rate appears to have been based in large part
upon the anticipation of big productivity payoffs from the investments that have been made in

information technology.

2. Measurement Problems

Those who would contend that the slowdown puzzle and computer productivity paradox are

consequences of a miss-measurement problem must produce a consistent account of the timing

and extent of the suspected errors in measurement. The estimation of productivity growth

requires a consistent method for estimating growth rates in the quantities of inputs and outputs.

With a few notable exceptions (e.g. electricity generation), the lack of homogeneity in industry

output frustrates direct measures of physical output and makes it necessary to estimate physical

output using a price deflator. Similar challenges arise, of course, in measuring the heterogeneous

bundles of labor and capital services, but, for the moment attention is being directed to the

problems that are suspected to persist in the measures of real product growth. Systematic

overstatement of prices will introduce a persistent downward bias estimated output growth and,

therefore, an understatement of both partial and total factor productivity improvements. Such

overstatement may arise in several distinct ways. There are some industries, especially services,

for which the concept of a unit of output itself is not well defined, and, consequently, where it is

difficult if not impossible to obtain meaningful price indices. In other cases, such as the
construction industry, the output is so heterogeneous that it requires special efforts to obtain

price quotations for comparable “products” both at an one point in time and over time. The

introduction of new commodities again raises the problem of comparability in forming the price

deflators for an industry whose output mix is changing radically, and the techniques that

statistical agencies have adopted to cope with the temporal replacement of old staples with new

items in the consumer’s shopping basket have been found to introduce systematic biases. These

are only the simpler and more straight forward potential worries about mismeasurement, but we

shall begin with a consideration of there bearing upon the puzzle of the slowdown and the

computer productivity paradox, before proceeding to some less tractable conceptual questions.

Third, there are those who approach the problem of accounting for what has been happening with

what might be labelled a spirit of “cautious optimism.” Explanations of this kind have seized

upon the idea that we are involved in the extended and complex process of transition to a new,

information intensive techno-economic regime based, a transition that involves the abandonment

of the extensive transformation of some, and renewal of other, aspects of the former, mature

"Fordist" technological regime. This technological regime, based upon techniques of mass

production and mass-marketing of standardized goods and services produced by capital-intensive

methods requiring dedicated facilities, high rates of through-put, and hierarchical management

organizations, had assumed its full-blown form first in the U.S. during the second quarter of the

present century. In its mature stage it underlay the prosperity and rapid growth of the post-
WWII era, not only in the U.S. but in other industrial countries of western Europe, and Japan,

where its full elaboration had been delayed by the economic and political dislocations of the

1920's and 1930's, as well as by WWII itself.

Regime transitions of this kind, it is argued, involve profound changes, whose revolutionary

nature is better revealed by their eventual breadth and depth than by the pace at which they

achieve their influence. Exactly because of their breadth and depth, they require the

development and coordination of a vast array of complementary tangible and intangible

elements: new physical plant and equipment, new kinds of workforce skills, new organizational

forms, new forms of legal property, new regulatory frameworks, new habits of mind and patterns

of taste. For these changes to be set in place requires decades, rather than years, and while they

are underway there is no guarantee that their dominant effects upon macroeconomic performance

will be positive ones. The emergence of positive effects is neither assured nor free from the

exploration of blind alleys (trajectories that proved economically nonviable and were

abandoned). Moreover, the rise of a new techno-economic paradigm can have dislocating,

backwash effects upon the performance of surviving elements of the previous economic order.

In short the "productivity paradox" may be a real phenomenon, paradoxical only to those who

suppose that the progress of technology is autonomous, continuous and, being "hitch less and

glitch less" translates immediately into cost-savings and economic welfare improvements.
3. The Making and Unmaking of a Paradox -- And the Persisting Puzzle

Disagreements among economists about the underlying empirical question hardly are a new

thing. More than a decade has now passed since concerns about the relationship between the

progress in the field of information technology and the improvement of productivity performance

in the economy at large crystallized around the perception that the U.S., along with other

advanced industrial economies, were confronted by a disturbing “productivity paradox.” The

precipitating event in the formation of this view was the rather offhand observation made in the

summer of 1987 by Robert Solow, Institute Professor at M.I.T., and Economics Nobel Laureate.

In the course of a book review Solow remarked: “You can see the computer age everywhere but

in the productivity statistics.” This characteristically pithy comment soon was being quoted by

the business press, repeated in government policy memos, and quickly became the touchstone for

proposals to convene academic conferences to assess the state of knowledge on the subject of

technology and productivity. In no time at all the question of why the information technology

revolution had not sparked a surge in productivity improvements and a consequent supply-drive

wave of economic growth was universally referred to as "the Productivity Paradox." Almost

Like many other observers, the Chairman of the ‘Fed’ viewed the rising volume of expenditures

by corporations for electronic office and telecommunications equipment since the late 1980s as

part of a far-reaching technological and economic transformation in which the U.S. economy is

taking the lead:

‘We are living through one of those rare, perhaps once-in-a-century events. The advent of the

transistor and the integrated circuit and, as a consequence, the emergence of modern computer,

telecommunication and satellite technologies have fundamentally changed the structure of the

American economy.’

4. Conceptual Challenges: What Are We Really Supposed to be Measuring?

Beyond the technical problems of the way that the national income accountants are coping with

accelerating product innovation and quality change lies several deeper conceptual issues. These

have been always with us, in a sense, but the nature of the changes in the organization and

conduce of production activities, and particularly the heighten role of information -- and changes

in the information state -- in modern economic life, may be bringing these problematical

questions to the surface in a way that forces reconsideration of what are measures are intended to

measure, and how they actually relate to those goals.

5. The Regime Transition Hypothesis: A Darker Journey Towards the Brighter Future?

The so-called “regime transition hypothesis” owes much in its general conception to the work of

Freeman and Perez (1986) that many increment technological, institutional and social
adjustments are required to realize the potential of a radical technological departure, and that

those adaptations are neither instantaneous nor costless. David (1990, 1991a, 1991b)) took up

this idea, which fitted preconceptions derived from studies of the economic history of previous

developments involving the introduction of "general purpose engines" -- the vertical watermill,

steam engines, the electrical dynamo, internal combustion engines -- and argued that it was quite

plausible that an extended phase of "transition" would be required to fully accommodate and

hence elaborate a technological and organizational regime built around a general purpose digital

computing engine -- “the computer.”

(formulated by Bresnahan and Trajtenberg (1995), of “general purpose technologies” that

transform an economy by finding many new lines of application, and fusing with existing

technologies to rejuvenate other, pre-existing sectors of the economy. While the positive, long-

run growth igniting ramifications of a fundamental technological breakthrough of that kind are

stressed in the formalization of this vision by the new growth theory literature, the possible

down-side of the process has not gone unrecognized. Mathematical models of such a multi-sector

learning and technology diffusion process indicate that the resources absorbed in the increasing

roundaboutness of the transition phase may result in the slowed growth of productivity and real

wages.
The earlier formulation of the regime transition argument by David (1990, 1991) was less

ambitious, but also focused specifically upon the economic aspects of the initial phases of the

transition dynamics that might contribute to slowing the measured growth of industrial

productivity. There are two distinct facets of the "extended transition" explanation of the

productivity paradox. One is concerned to show that lags in the diffusion process involving a

general purpose technology can result in long delays in the acceleration of productivity

growth in the economy at large; whereas the other emphasizes that in the transition process

itself resources are devoted to purposes that escape being properly measured among the

outputs of the economy.

6. Beauties and Beasts: Computers, Microprocessors and Revolutionary Production

Systems

Putting the whole burden of explanation on the notion that existing methods are inadequate in

accounting for the effects of the computer revolution is, however, not entirely satisfactory.

Even if a large share of these effects vanish into territory inadequately mapped using existing

statistical measurement approaches, it is puzzling why more conventional indices of

productivity in branches of industry that previously were not regarded to be "unmeasurable"

have not been more positively affected by the advent of new information technologies. Here,
 we believe, there is a case to be made that the customary link between innovation in the

development of technological artefacts and improvements in productivity for the users of

those tools has indeed frayed; that there are real problems in delivering on the productivity

promises of the computer revolution. 7.1 Component Performance and System Performance

A common focus of attention in the computer revolution is the performance of

microelectronic components. The widespread acceptance of Moore's Law shapes user

expectations and technological planning, not only in the integrated circuit industry, but in all of

the information and communication technology industries. For software designers, Moore's law

promises that new computational resources will continue to grow and encourages the

development of products embodying more features so that the diverse needs of an ever-growing

user community can be fulfilled. It need not follow that any particular user will experience

performance improvement as the result of component improvement. Even if the user adopts the

new technology, the learning time in mastering new software, the greater number of choices that

may need to make to navigate a growing array of options and the longer times required for the

more complex software to execute will offset part or all of the gains from increasing component

performance.
 It is now widely recognized that the costs of personal computer ownership to the business

organization may be tenfold the acquisition costs of the computer itself. Some of these costs are

recorded directly while others are part of the learning investments being made by firms in formal

and informal 'on the job' knowledge acquisition about information technology. Many of these

costs are unrelated to the performance of microprocessor components and for many applications,

the use of personal computers is therefore relatively unaffected by microprocessor performance

improvements. Identifying which applications are subject to relatively constant costs and how

great their extent is in the overall use of personal computers is an important research opportunity,

but one that will obviously be very costly to conduct.

From a productivity measurement viewpoint, the relatively constant costs associated with

personal computer ownership are further complicated by the continuing spread of these

technologies throughout the organization. In many cases, employees are being given general

purpose tools which may be and often are useful for devising new ways to perform their work.

At the same time, it is apparent to most sophisticated users of computers that the extension of

these capabilities also creates a vast new array of problems that must be solved to achieve

desired aims. Most organizations believe that learning to solve these problems will eventually

create a greater range of organizational and individual capabilities that will improve profitability.

In any case, it is now expected that a modern organization will provide reasonably sophisticated

information technology as part of the office equipment to which every employee is entitled.

Abstract

Productive learning is defined as learning that can be reused, in application to new problem

situations in an organization or for assimilation and reflection in structured learning situations

such as courses. An important but underexploited form of productive learning relates to the

capture and reuse of the tacit knowledge of members of an organization. Two approaches for this

reuse of tacit knowledge are discussed, along with instructional strategies and technologies to

support the knowledge capture and reuse process within each of the approaches. In one of the

illustrated approaches the emphasis is on how those in mentor or supervisor positions can more

systematically support the diffusion of their own tacit knowledge to those of their mentees and in
the process create new knowledge for reuse in other situations. In the second illustration, a

change in orientation from knowledge transfer to knowledge creation and sharing in the formal

training programs of the organization is the focus. An underlying database as well as easy-to-use

tools for resource entry and indexing are key elements in facilitating the reuse of experience-

based resources within and across both informal and formal learning.

Questions:

1. What are the most common Digital Tools use in this workplace? Give Three (3) or more

digital tools.

“Usually personal computer at telephone fox, scanner, photocopier yon ang kadalasang

ginagamit naming”

2. How this tools help workers to make the job well done?

“Lahat naman kasi ng process naming through sa communication sa mga emails sa mga

transaction naming tapos sa usually kong meron kaming mga confirmation sa other

department through phone calls naman kami so hindi siya mas applicable siya samin

yong mga telephone na sa landline tapos minsan sa telegram to personal computer siya

necessary at all times if ever meron silang complain o Iveverify kong saan siyang

computer or phone calls”

3. How this Digital tools make less productive your everyday work

“Less productive namasasabi kasi nakakatulong naman wala namang gadget na hindi

nakakatulong samin siguro sa ibang department meron siguro pero dito samin usually
 lahat nagagamit kaya wala kami minsan so lahat ng gadget naming dito yong mga

opposite equipments nagagamit din sila”

4. What if there’s suddenly electricity cut? And you don’t have generator?

“Pag nawalan kami ng kuryente meron kaming genses so yong genses namen iniinstall

siya dito na automatic don yong meron kaming kuryente yon nga lang hindi siguro lahat

makikita parang personal computer tapos yong window open lang ano parin kami sa

trabaho tuloy tuloy parin yong process namen, pag nawala siya since na wala siyang

computer ano lang siguro mag fafiling lang kong medyo maaraw yon lang pagka wala

syempre meron kaming emergency light pero madilim parin siya so ang mangyayari non

ano nalang kong anong pweding gawin nalang on hands nalang kamit”

5. What advantages does digital tools have to you? Why?

“Oo naman kasi nagkaka lesson siya kong baga marami siya naitutulong specially yong

distance pang tuition meron dapat kayong letter at document na mabilis iforward through

emaishot marerecel nalang kasi minsan diba nag loloko yong facts natin must better yong

email scan muna natin through email shot marerecieve nalang ng document means na ipapasa

truly antagal ilang days pa o kaya naman if ever kong may comformation pwedi siya through

cellphone o kaya naman pwedi sa telegram or sa ele pero must better kong halimbawa ergent
siya to phone call kami cellphone or telephone nga lang merong prohided document na

ifoforward through emails o kaya naman telegram yon yong use ng communication namen”
 CHAPTER V

CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION

Conclusion

Devices such as the mobile phone became part of our daily living to the point that it became a

necessity to most of us, this is because our work requires the use of devices because nowadays

it's a lot of help for devices all over when using those tasks speeding up and not having a

different document in another office because there is technology that helps us to facilitate our

work, and we live with the help of technology around us that every move we need cellphone

computers or others who use technology we cannot even say we do not need it because we know

that this is now the reason why the everyday our work is especially on us when we get too rush

to go to another office because we have to file those files that we need to spend less time to get it

sometimes for some time or the day before we received them now they would be able to handle

them early and do not waste time.

 usually computer or landline because we are actually holding this office so we

can communicate with other people in the area who need to submit documents and emails or

others to take care of them because they need to finish in time for that other jobs may be covered

but not with the landline applicable through telegram to verify their complaints via telephone

calls.

so now in our life because we live in digital age we cannot say less

productive because the gadget is really helpful nowadays It became more convenient for to

communicate with each other and helped us develop a sense of mutuality understanding, and

unity that is still evident until this present day One of the beneficiaries of these are the current

generation who live in the present Digital Age,

Today’s generation are considered to be more advanced when it comes to thinking, also

innovative, and more socially aware of the current events of our present day. Due to being born

in the Digital Age so we are free to express our knowledge because we are increasingly

expanding our knowledge about technology that we can freely and utilize what we want our

technology to make more develop us that we are able to explore freely knowing that we do not

know before We are free to use technology, We know more about our capabilities that we do not

yet.
 The researchers used purposive sampling design which was given to them by their

instructor in order for them to meet certain conditions needed for their study, The study focused

on wherein it aims to assess one person to know their side about technology and what they can

say when they are not able to use it and have an impact on their daily activities or routine work

and what effect they will have on technology.

As we face this the researchers initiated a Qualitative research study that aims to assess

how digital tools make the workplace less productive and what can be done without technology

how they exist the way they know as a person.

To make this research study possible, the researchers first gathered related articles

that can provide crucial information and can be used to support their claim and make their

arguments more agreeable to an acceptable extent. Then the researchers searched for respondents

that they will conduct their study with. And then they created an interview to answer each

question to obtain information.

In our interviews, technology is a great help to them because it makes their job easier and

becomes more active because they do not have the chance to get another document and spend
time because technology makes communication with each other easier using technology their

influence is also great because of their work.

One of the reasons is that their work is so difficult that they make the most of their

computer use because it makes their job easier to get emails or documents using communication

with ease using technology.

The more they need it so no one else can tell their job and because they can do their job

well and fast.

Our respondents determined that they can express themselves more through their computer

or phone call because sometimes the other person is a way from them so on the phone they can

talk well.

Recommendation/s

As the researchers have come to reach their research’s conclusion, we have determined that

technology is really a help to them because of the everyday work they have and elsewhere they

need on the phone or computer to solve the problem, so they can communicate because they do

not have difficulty interacting with other people because of the reason is that the computer is

send to them immediately the documents they need to fix fast without losing time and time. they
are more impregnated with their jobs than they do and still have other jobs with no difficulty in

collaboration with technology.

Recommendation for Future Researchers

 Today is a modern day every employeehas need to finish their works in time, we suggest

to used digital tools that helps them to finish their work easily.

 Every employee in the workplace should know how to use digital tools properly and they

also need to know that digital tools can abused if it is used in wrong purpose.

 Every employee should know how to manage their time because managing time also

helps to finish work with or without using digital tools
