This study aimed to create new classifications for occupations that have emerged from the COVID-19 pandemic in Korea, based on Reich’s classifications for the United States. We examined Korean workers’ occupational calling, psychological health, and quality of life. An online questionnaire was administered and data from 1029 Korean workers were analyzed. The questionnaire comprised the Korean version of the Multidimensional Calling Measure to assess occupational calling, the Psychosocial Well-being Index-short form for psychological health, and the Control, Autonomy, Self-realization, and Pleasure (CASP-19) scale for quality of life. We created a Korean-adapted version of the classes of occupation based on those created by the COVID-19 situation in the USA. Our results showed that Korean workers had a high perceived calling to work, and different classes showed different levels of quality of life and psychological health. We need a health concentration management system for essential groups or personal safety protection equipment should be provided. Education on infection control should be offered and effective medical system processes should be in place. We need to develop technology to respond to medical needs online, remotely, or telephonically. The government should implement policies to ensure job security and to improve wages and welfare.

本研究旨在根据 Reich 对美国的分类，为韩国 COVID-19 大流行中出现的职业创建新的分类。我们调查了韩国工人的职业使命、心理健康和生活质量。对 1029 名韩国工人进行了在线调查问卷并进行了数据分析。调查问卷包括用于评估职业呼唤的韩国版多维呼唤测量、用于心理健康的心理社会幸福指数（缩写形式）以及用于评估工作质量的控制、自主、自我实现和愉悦（CASP-19）量表。生活。我们根据美国的 COVID-19 情况创建了职业类别的韩语版本。我们的研究结果显示，韩国工人对工作的使命感较高，不同阶层的生活质量和心理健康水平也不同。我们需要针对必要人群的健康浓度管理系统或提供个人安全防护设备。应提供感染控制教育，并建立有效的医疗系统流程。我们需要开发技术来通过在线、远程或电话方式响应医疗需求。政府应实施确保就业保障、提高工资和福利的政策。
