Abstract:
Traffic enforcers play an essential role in ensuring road safety and order, but their demanding work under challenging conditions can negatively impact their well-being. This study aimed to assess the degree of adherence to health habits among traffic enforcers in Baguio City, focusing on physical, mental, and social aspects. A descriptive study was conducted with 41 traffic enforcers from the PNP Traffic Management Unit selected through simple random sampling. Self-reported questionnaires assessed adherence to health habits in each domain. The overall weighted mean score for adherence to health habits was 4.23, indicating a generally high level of engagement. Traffic enforcers reported consistent adherence to practices related to physical well-being (mean = 4.27), mental well-being (mean = 4.27), and social aspects (mean = 4.16). The high mean score for social health habits suggests a prioritization of social interaction and positive relationship building. This study revealed a positive commitment to health habits among Baguio City traffic enforcers across physical, mental, and social aspects. These findings provide valuable insights for future research and potential well-being support programs for traffic enforcers.
