Pandemija covida-19 je imela posledice za ves svet – posegla je v samo jedro delovne sile in dinamiko trga dela, velike posledice pa je pustila tudi na zdravstvenem sistemu. Zaradi izolacije in omejevanja socialnih stikov se je prebivalstvo soočalo s težavami v duševnem zdravju ali razvilo duševne motnje (npr. depresijo), prav tako so posledice močno opazne na področju navad in slabih razvad ljudi ter pri negativnih vzorcih razmišljanja. Na samem trgu dela je epidemija osvetlila problematiko v podjetjih na mikro in makro ravni. V delovnih okoljih se je pokazalo, kakšna kultura vlada v podjetju, kakšno vodstvo ima, predvsem pa, ali ima to posluh za svoje zaposlene, njihovo zdravstveno stanje in kvaliteto življenja. Dolgoročne posledice na trgu dela se kažejo zlasti v storitvenem sektorju, kot sta gostinstvo in turizem, in kulturi. Delovna sila se razporeja, primanjkljaj delovne sile se že kaže na manj stabilnih delovnih mestih, kar je neposredna posledica covida-19, saj ljudje nimajo več zaupanja v stabilnost teh sektorjev. Zapiranje trga v času najstrožjih vladnih ukrepov in odpuščanja je pustilo svoj pečat. Raziskava obravnava področje duševnega zdravja zaposlenih – s poudarkom na samostojnih podjetnikih – med epidemijo covida-19 s ciljem preučiti vpliv ukrepov za obvladovanje socialno-ekonomskih posledic v času epidemije na zaposlene ter najti povezavo med ukrepi in težavami v duševnem zdravju. The COVID-19 global pandemic has had consequences for the whole world – it has affected the very core of the workforce and the dynamic of the labour market, parallelly it had a major impact on the health system. Isolation and reduced social contact have led to mental health problems or mental disorders (e.g., depression), and the consequences are also marked in terms of people's habits and vices, also establishment of negative thinking patterns. On the labour market itself, the epidemic has highlighted problems in companies at both micro and macro levels. The work environments revealed the company culture, the management and, above all, whether they listen to their employees, acknowledge their health and quality of life. The long-term labour market effects are mainly noticeable in the service sector, such as catering or tourism, as well as in culture. Workforce is rearranging, and labour shortages are already showing up in less stable jobs as a direct consequence of COVID-19, as people no longer have confidence in the stability of these sectors. Market closure at a time of most strict government measures and lay-offs have left their mark. The research focuses on the mental health of employees – with the focus on independent contractors – during the COVID-19 epidemic, with the aim of examining the impact of measures to manage the socio-economic consequences of the epidemic on employees and their association with mental health problems. |
