Abstract: This study examined the implementation of health and safety awareness among learners in Lingayen District II, focusing on the community’s response to the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic. Specifically, it examines the correlation between students’ awareness levels and the implementation of health and safety protocols within their educational environment. A total of 50 students participated in the study, with 25 respondents each from Domalandan Center Integrated School and Estanza National High School. Data were collected using a structured three-part questionnaire designed to assess both awareness and implementation levels. The responses were systematically recorded, tabulated, and analyzed to address the research objectives. The analysis revealed a significant positive relationship between learners’ health and safety awareness and the implementation of corresponding protocols. Specifically, the Pearson correlation coefficient was r = 0.9855 with a p-value of 0.0000486, indicating a strong and statistically significant correlation. Consequently, the null hypothesis stating no significant relationship between awareness and implementation was rejected in favor of the alternative hypothesis. The mean score for the level of health and safety awareness was 3.146, categorized as “High,†while the mean score for the implementation of health and safety protocols was 3.309, categorized as “Very High.†These findings suggest that a higher level of awareness among learners is associated with a higher level of protocol implementation. Despite these encouraging results, the data indicate room for improvement. The ongoing presence of COVID-19 underscores the need for continuous reinforcement of health and safety practices within educational settings. Enhancing awareness programs and ensuring consistent implementation of protocols remain essential to safeguard the well-being of students and the broader school community.
