The ECQ ordered that all people to stay at home and that all non-essential businesses, schools

and colleges, public transit, malls, and churches be closed.

EMPLOYMENT

People's health, jobs, and rights have all suffered as a result of the epidemic. As industries were
obliged to shut down in order to safeguard employees' health and promote compliance with
mitigation and containment rules. Employers reorganized their operations whenever feasible to
allow for remote working arrangements. With people restricted to their homes for more than two
months, the most vulnerable people have faced the brunt of these limitations, particularly daily
wage earners protected by the "no work, no pay" policy and those working in the informal
economy. As a result of their loss of income, these employees have been forced to rely on
whatever assistance and social amelioration programs the national government, local government
organizations, and the private sector can provide.

SCHOOL

Schools had to acclimatize to the new environment in which face-to-face engagement and large
crowds were forbidden. Teachers and administrators were assigned to revise and adjust course
syllabi and requirements from the comfort of their own homes while they transitioned to
alternative or remote teaching modes, both synchronous and asynchronous. Learning
management systems like Canvas, and Blackboard, as well as apps like Google Classroom,
Zoom, and Skype, were employed when students and teachers had access to electronic devices
and dependable Internet connections. However, where students had limited access to computers
or unstable Internet connectivity, they would supply pupils with modular learning that would be
printed out and provided to them. Instructors and students utilized cellphones to communicate
messages, notes, and resources via text messaging, e-mail, Facebook Messenger, and Twitter.

SOCIO ECONOMIC

While COVID-19 instances in the region have been kept low, the reaction measures (mostly
lockdowns, quarantines, and social distancing) implemented in the country and region to battle
the pandemic have had significant socioeconomic consequences on its people and economy,
even in the short term. It has also fueled concerns about an approaching economic catastrophe
and recession. Social isolation, self-isolation, and travel limitations have resulted in a diminished
workforce across all economic sectors, resulting in the loss of numerous employments. Schools
have closed, and the demand for commodities and manufactured goods has dwindled. In contrast,
the need for medical supplies has skyrocketed. The food industry is also seeing higher demand as
a result of panic buying and hoarding of food supplies. In reaction to the worldwide pandemic.
When the Coronavirus epidemic began to spread over the world, no town or culture was spared.
COVID-19 had immediate and serious socioeconomic consequences, including income loss,
business disruption, and health issues. Consumers' most basic necessities were jeopardized. In
the aftermath of an unusual disaster, a lack of understanding among communities aggravated the
issue.
