Abstract

For months, the world has watched in horror as the global outbreak of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV 2), which causes coronavirus disease (COVID 19), has spread across the globe. The rapid expansion of SARS-CoV 2 has caused significant disruption to the lives of individuals in every region of the world. To date, SARS-CoV 2 has infected more than 511.67 million people and resulted in more than 6.25 million deaths. COVID 19 is a serious threat to public health, and the shutdown of human resources could have a debilitating impact on the ability of organizations to continue providing services to their customers and clients and critical human resource functions such as payroll, benefits administration, and employee assistance programs.

The personnel of the organization, who were once satisfied with their current roles, have now begun to question their responsibilities and duties and are looking for ways to increase their productivity. As a result, many are beginning to explore work-from-home options. During this pandemic situation, organizations are evolving many engagement activities like online family engagement practices, virtual learning & development, online team building activities, webinars, and other ways to increase employee engagement while maintaining the operational core of the business.
