Abstract: This study explored the influence of organizational communication and work values on collaboration among intergenerational nurses in a government hospital in Iloilo City during the first quarter of 2025. The study was anchored on the Theory of Work Adjustment, Communication Accommodation Theory, and Interprofessional Collaboration Theory. A descriptive-correlational and comparative research design was employed involving 51 nurses—nearly equally divided between young adults (20–35 years old) and older adults (36 years old and above). Standardized instruments measured organizational communication, work values, and collaboration. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-tests for significant differences, and Pearson’s correlation for relationships among variables. Results revealed no significant differences in communication and collaboration across age groups. However, older nurses scored significantly higher in values such as power, universalism, conformity, and tradition, indicating a generational shift in value orientation. Significant positive relationships were found between several work values like conformity, self-direction, universalism and dimensions of communication and collaboration. These findings confirm that intergenerational collaboration is shaped more by value alignment and communication practices than by age differences alone. A generation-based collaboration plan was proposed to strengthen shared values, promote effective communication, and enhance team-based nursing care.
