Cover Story: In what ways does resilience matter in crises? The COVID-19 pandemic affected the economy through lockdowns and other health mitigation policies. This necessitates considering workplace sustainability as a dominant indicator of resilience regarding the COVID-19 outbreak, despite empirical evidence suggesting the amplifying impact of corporate finance on workplace resilience and macroeconomic sensitivity to the shock of COVID-19. The absence of any other major crises in this period allows the quantification of the influence of COVID-19-related firms’ financial status. The pricing effect of such an interaction is relevant when firms have different levels of exposure to such a disaster and investors expect even more returns for low-resilience firms as pandemics trigger cash flows.
