Maintain Employee Health during the COVID-19 Pandemic, This Is What Companies Can Do

Liputan6.com, Jakarta Well-being and employee health both physically and mentally need to be the priority of every company, especially during a pandemic COVID-19.

In the business world, not all companies are able to apply health protocol maximally in an effort to optimally maintain the safety and health of its employees. In fact, employees are company assets that are important to be maintained and protected.

This was conveyed by PT Johnson & Johnson Indonesia Head of HR & Business Development / Strategy Indriyati Sumarsono.

“The health and welfare of employees as well as mental health are a priority, especially during this pandemic. In facing a pandemic situation, we continue to focus on adapting to the work environment, “said Indriyati as quoted from a press statement, Wednesday (9/12/2020).

He added that by protecting employees, they will be able to balance their personal and professional responsibilities and prioritize their emotional, mental and physical health and well-being.

As an effort to protect employees during a pandemic, each company can organize a consultation program with a counselor. This can provide employees with access to consult with a certified counselor on a number of personal and mental health issues, including pandemic stress.

The counselor must be available at all times and can be reached via a telephone line or a special link provided by the company.

In an effort to encourage employees to consider virtual medicine as a first line of defense, companies should also offer free telemedicine advice for related symptoms COVID-19.
