dc.description.abstractTobacco use is the leading cause of death and disability globally. To address the problem, government units implemented tobacco control policies and ordinances. The study aimed to determine the level of awareness, level of implementation and level of effectiveness of the Tobacco Control Ordinance of Rosario, La Union. It aimed to identify the problems encountered in the implementation of ordinance. The study used the descriptive method of research. The study was conducted in the selected barangays of Rosario, La Union during the 1st Semester of School Year 2017-2018. There were exact 380 respondents who answered the questionnaires. Findings indicated that majority of the residents of Rosario, La Union are aware of the ordinance. The Tobacco Control Ordinance is deemed to be moderately implemented as perceived by the respondents. Residents appear to share a common understanding of which the ordinance is most likely to be moderately effective. Also, problems encountered in the implementation of the ordinance are minimal since the overall assessment of the implementation is moderately implemented. There is a significant relationship between the level of awareness and the level of implementation of the ordinance. Problems identified were as follows: re-inspection and monitoring of violators, furnishing of primers, putting up no smoking signages and issuance of warning tickets. The proposed policy recommendation has a high validity index.
