Action note: In: Summary: ABSTRACT: The study addressed two research objectives related to the experiences of female overseas Filipino workers in Saudi Arabia. These objectives included: understanding from the perspective of a female OFW, the experiences working in a Multinational Muslim organization in Saudi Arabia; and explore their adaptation/ adjustment experiences. TO address the said objectives, an interpretative phenomenological analysis was chosen to explore the lived experiences of female Overseas Filipino Workers. The participants in this study were between 25-40 years of age, female OFW employed at King Adbulaziz Medical City-Mangha, Riyadh Saudi Arabia, and all college graduates. The interview format was generally developed in accordance with the research questions and objectives, and therefore the research could not progress without developing the questions to be asked during data collection. To efficiently measure such variables an online in-depth interview tool was employed in this study. The study found out that the participants were not treated with respect and equally by the organization administration or supervisors and Muslim co-workers. Muslims particularly Saudis were favored over the expatriates and are treated negatively. The findings revealed a number of themes emerging from the participants' experiences working in a Muslim organization. Insufficient training and development had a significant impact on their experience, meaning that they needed to depend on others and their own experience to develop themselves as professionals. The main conclusion of this present study is to assist develop and promote culturally competent work for the Saudi context. It is recommended that the government or the agency should conduct a thorough interview and assessment of the OFW who will be deployed in a country with very conservative and strict culture and laws. In order to properly select who is resilient enough to withstand its culture differences and restrictions. Other editions:
