Impact of real property tax tools of Sulu Provincial Assessor’s Office: employees’ perspectives

Abstract

The effect that real property tax instruments at the Sulu Provincial Assessor's office have on Sulu local government entities is the subject of this study. One hundred respondents were included in the study; most were middle-aged (26–39), with over half of them being employed full-time. Employees were highly in agreement about these technologies' efficacy, according to the survey, with tax mapping activities and computerization through electronic methods obtaining "Strongly Agree" ratings. For the Schedule of Market Value category, on the other hand, the rating was "Agree," indicating a somewhat lower but still favorable opinion of the fairness and accuracy of property assessments. When the tools were categorized based on gender, age, or work position, the study also did not find any discernible variations in the degree of impact of the tools. When the data was sorted by duration of employment, there were notable distinctions, indicating that employees with varying tenures had differing perceptions. The study found that respondents, independent of demographic variables, had a higher degree of agreement about the perceived impact and effectiveness of different real property tax instruments. The study's conclusion emphasizes how crucial it is to take into account the various backgrounds and experiences of staff members when assessing how well the Sulu Provincial Assessor's office's real property tax tools work.
