N2  - ABSTRACT
Many strategies have been applied by companies during the Covid-19 period in order 
to navigate through the dynamics of the pandemic, ranging from layoffs, social 
distancing, mask wearing, changes in office designs and layouts and many more. 
However, one of the strategies that was almost adopted by almost every industry was 
remote working. The idea of remote working has existed long before the coronavirus 
pandemic but this is the first time it has been embraced globally during a particular 
crisis The recognition of the enormous importance of remote working during the 
pandemic was propelled by the lockdown initiatives implemented by various national 
governments to control the spread of the virus. Lessons learnt also included how
employees dealt particularly with the changes in behaviors of tourists who were 
confronted with a lot of decisions to make with respect to their families, health, 
safety, traveling, dealing with delays and cancellations and so on. The case study 
used in the research was Nigeria but minor references and comparisons were made to 
most tourism sectors in Europe to assess the positive and negative impacts of the 
pandemic on employees and their future perceptions. In the case of this research, 
managers were given the chance to provide their personal opinions on the stress 
management implications, thereby representing the feelings, opinions and 
perceptions of every employee they were managing. The correlation coefficient 
between Psychological Safety and Job Stress .591, which signifies a strong 
correlation. The correlation coefficient between Psychological Safety and Stress 
Management Policy is .664 which signifies a strong correlation. The correlation 
coefficient between Psychological Safety and Remote Working is .622 which 
signifies a very strong correlation between them. The correlation between 
Psychological Safety measured with the gender factor produced a strong correlation 
with a coefficient of .351. With a population of 780,468, the sample size was 400 HR 
Managers.
