When the Covid-19 pandemic started many companies had to cut down on workers to save on expenses. As a part of this workcoaches might face new challenges because more people becomes unemployed. The purpose of this study is to find out if there has been any change in how workcoaches work due to the pandemic. Manu workers, mostly officials, have gone from physical meetings to have them digitally. Interviews has been done in Västerbotten in Sweden. Comparison between how the work was done before and during Covid-19 will be made. The interviews show that an adaption of work has been done. Workcoaches has gone from many physical meetings with a single person to meetings in group using digital technologies. The interview shows that it has been both pros and cons about the adaption. Pros is the fact that you can fast share information to many people at the same time, independent of where they are. Example of cons is that it is hard to create a good relationship between the workcoach and the one that is being coached. One of the reasons is that the digital solution can act as a filter between people and body language can be harder to perceive. Another con is the fact that when you work from home it counts as working alone. The fact that you may have connection with other work coaches only by digital solutions can result in that you get worse cooperation between co-workers. A result of this can lead to negative stress. In summary have the interviewed workcoaches made good changes to how they work and have thoughts of taking some of the changes with them into the future after the pandemic.
