Abstract
The organizational system across the world is undergoing a transition and is affected by numerous factors ranging from technology to psychology as the COVID-19 pandemic has created a perplexing situation in all spheres of life. The pandemic made people experience trauma, anxiety, stress, and psychological pressure. The stressors can damage health and influence the sense of well-being, behaviour, and mental health. The magnitude of issues faced by the organizational members and approaches to overcome these post-COVID situations have to be given high importance, and the present study is an attempt to understand the relevance, applicability, and appropriateness of workplace spirituality and its interconnectedness with occupational burnout, work engagement, and employee wellbeing. Previous research studies have been relied upon for developing the conceptual framework of the study. The insights gained from the study include a positive linkage between workplace spirituality and employee wellbeing mediated by thriving at work, work engagement, and occupational burnout.
