dc.description.abstractThe concept of domestic workers and family are broad fields of study encompassing a wide range of interest. This study focused on integrating the domestic workers or kasambahays into the concept of a Filipino family. It focused on determining the concept of extended family as in the case of kasambahays. Specifically, the study intended to describe the socio-demographic profile of kasambahays, to describe the socio-demographic profile of kasambahay's employers, to describe the nature of work, responsibilities and relationship of kasambahay with employer and family members, and to determine the factors responsible for the nature of the relationship and treatment of kasambahay in the employer's household A total of 100 kasambahays and 100 employers were given self-constructed questionnaires to get the data needed. AU the respondents were from the National Capital Region. The Social Exchange theory was used as the theoretical framework to give further explanations to the data gathered. Based on the results, there exist a family-like relationship between majority of the kasambahays and employers surveyed. There subsists a good working and non-working relationship between both parties. This relationship then led to the kasambahay's longer employment time. Eventually, their views towards each other led to a family-like one. However, it was found out that the family-like ideology found between the two is not similar to that of consanguineal family. This family-like ideology present in the employer and kasambahay's relationship is easy to break by one wrongdoing of the kasambahay.en_US
