Amaç: 2019 yılının Aralık ayında Çin Halk Cumhuriyetinin Wuhan kentinde başlayıp dünyayı etkileyen yeni korona virüs tüm dünyaya beklenmedik bir şekilde salgın olarak yayılması sonucu Dünya Sağlık Örgütü 11 Mart 2020 tarihinde Pandemi olarak tanımlayıp ilan etmiştir. 2021 yılı Nisan ayı itibariyle yaklaşık üç milyon insanın ölümüne sebep olması dolayısıyla, bireylerin korku ve kaygı düzeylerine yönelik tutumlarının incelenmesi için banka çalışanlarına yönelik 389 kişi üzerinde araştırma yapılmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntem: Araştırmada veri toplama aracı olarak Kişisel Bilgi Formu ve COVID-19 Korku Ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Bulgular ve Sonuç: Araştırma sonucunda banka çalışanlarının cinsiyet, medeni durum, eğitim durumu gibi sosyo-demografik özelliklerine göre COVID-19 korku düzeylerinde anlamlı farklılık bulunmazken COVID-19 haberlerini takip edenlerin daha fazla korkuya sahip olduğu bulunmuştur. COVID-19 virüsü ile topluma sürekli basın ve medya üzerinden bilinçli farkındalık oluşturmaya yönelik korku ve kaygı ile baş etme konusunda yardımcı olmak üzere psikolojik temelli stres azaltmaya yönelik programlar yapılması ülke geneline mülki idare amirleri, yerel yönetimler birlikte hareket ederek toplumda oluşabilecek kaygı stres ve korkuyu en az seviyelere getirmeye çalışılmalıdır.

Objective: As a result of the unexpected spread of the new coronavirus, which started in Wuhan, People's Republic of China, and affected the world in December 2019, the World Health Organization defined and declared it as a Pandemic on March 11, 2020. As of April 2021, 389 people were surveyed for bank employees in order to examine the attitudes of individuals towards their fear and anxiety levels, as it caused the death of approximately three million people. Materials and Methods: Personal Information Form and COVID-19 Fear Scale were used as data collection tools in the study. Results and Conclusion: As a result of the research, it was found that while there was no significant difference in COVID-19 fear levels according to the socio-demographic characteristics such as gender, marital status, education status, those who follow the COVID-19 news had more fear. With the COVID-19 virus, psychologically-based stress reduction programs to help the society to cope with the fear and anxiety aimed at creating conscious awareness through the press and the media, to reduce the anxiety, stress, and fear that may occur in the society by acting together with the local governments and local administrations. It should be tried to bring it to low levels.
