The key items for the above objectives are the introduction and increase of telework and online operations; changes in the working environment, such as reduced working hours, dismissal, and the effects of unemployment; changes such as increased stress and decreased coping strategies among workers; increased loneliness and isolation, as well as decreased opportunities for communication-including opportunities for employees to meet for mental health resources-and an increase in the need for self-care as a stress-coping method that can be practiced by one person.
