Aims: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between educators' demographic characteristics and their stress and depression during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Instrument & Methods: This descriptive study was carried out on 21132 teachers in 14 regions of the Philippines during 2021-2022. The data were collected using the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 by pnline mode. The collected data were analyzed using the Pearson correlation coefficient through SPSS22 Software.
Findings: There was a significant difference between the workplace stress and demographic characteristics (p<0.05) except for the salary range (p>0.05). There was a significant difference between the frequency of depression and demographic characteristics (p<0.05).
Conclusion: There is a significant correlation between workplace stress and depression with demographic characteristics in Filipino teachers.
