This webinar will provide insights into:
 • Understanding how the mental health of employees and operators alike may be affected by the COVID-19 pandemic 

• Actionable advice on how to combat stress and anxiety  
 • Knowing what government programs have been announced to help alleviate the stress caused by COVID-19
