Whether you are the boss in a company employing thousands or the newest hire in the office, COVID is changing how all of us earn a living. The lockdown has seen millions working remotely from home, many benefiting from government support packages to keep their jobs open .
Economists are warning that the long term furlough in workers risks exacerbating inequalities in the jobs market, while issues of stress and isolation as well as the strains of childcare have taken their toll. For others however, lockdown has given a unique opportunity to create the career of their dreams, away from the politics of office life.
Notes on a Pandemic is written and presented by Louise Greenwood. Additional production by Katherine Berjikian
