“…Generally, alienation from work is a complex negative mental state associated with the destruction of interpersonal communications, expressed in the perception by employees of powerlessness and loss of meaning concerning their activity, working environment, and social environment; loss of selfidentification in the role of an organizational employee; and violation and errors of interaction and communication (Vinokurov, 2019).…”

This qualitative study was undertaken and employed hermeneutic phenomenology. It described the essence of the experiences of the grade six teachers in Malapatan Central Elementary School in employing self-learning modules during the COVID-19 pandemic. Five participants underwent an in-depth interview to discover their lived experiences analyzed thematically. The data gathered were categorized into three main themes: coping with the difficulties in the new normal through a passion for teaching, optimism in the face of adversities, and alienation from job, pupils, and from oneself. The study concluded that massive, sudden changes brought by the COVID-19 pandemic caused difficulties in the lives of the teachers as they were separated from their actual roles as educators, even leading to alienation from their profession, their pupils, and themselves. Nevertheless, the teachers remained optimistic, determined to find ways to cope with these challenges because deep within their hearts lies their passion for teaching.

The primary objective of this study is to investigate how perceived social support influences workplace loneliness, with a focus on the mediating role of work alienation. Existing research on the relationship between workplace loneliness, perceived social support, and employee engagement is notably limited. Recognizing the significance of social connections in individuals' lives, it is crucial to acknowledge that a substantial portion of our time is spent in the workplace. Failing to cultivate such relationships may predispose individuals to experience feelings of loneliness. Employing a cross-sectional design, the study gathered data from a convenient sample comprising 178 participants (48 males, 130 females), aged between 21 and 53 years (M=30.88, SD=9.00). Structured questionnaires, namely the Loneliness at Work Scale, The Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support, and the Work Alienation Scale, were utilized for data collection. The findings revealed a negative correlation between perceived social support and workplace loneliness (r=-.729, p<.01). Similarly, perceived social support exhibited a negative association with work alienation (r=-.744, p<.01). Additionally, work alienation emerged as a robust mediator in the relationship between perceived social support and workplace loneliness (z = -4.12, p = .000). To enhance the explanatory capacity of the proposed model, future studies could consider incorporating additional variables. These may include jobrelated affective well-being, organizational commitment, or organizational citizenship behavior, offering a more comprehensive understanding of the intricate connections between perceived social support and workplace loneliness.
