Abstract

The researcher used a Qualitative approach, specifically phenomenological design, and used a semi-structured interview to gather in-depth data about the worker’s perspective and experiences. Also used thematic analysis to organize and identify the theme that will come out. The study establishes the two main reasons why blue-collar workers stay in their jobs and these are to sustain the family needs and attain job satisfaction. The workers also added that they are motivated and determined to work hard to be the provider for the family and are satisfied with their jobs. Achieving job satisfaction by the workers has a reason behind it, it is having a good relationship with workmates and equal salary. In addition, the research showed that some blue-collar workers want to manage their businesses to generate income for their retirement, investing whatever they have saved from their work. For future researchers, re-conducting this research on a larger population and wider area will supply a broader perspective of the workers, this will help the succeeding researchers to provide new information at a more modern and faster pace.
