摘要：Journalists are the main pillars of press freedom. Therefore, in carrying out their duties, journalists are entitled to legal protection from the state, society, and press companies. The approach used in this research is a qualitative descriptive approach that intends to understand the phenomena experienced by the research subjects. This study used Elton Mayo's (2003) approach because of his concept of "Human Relations Theory" emphasizes the importance of the psychological and social aspects of employees as individuals or workgroups. Mayo developed the field of industrial psychology by applying the results of scientific research to work problems to improve the standard of living of workers and industrial managers and encourage collaboration between management and workers. The conclusion was that not all press companies were able to protect their journalists. However, some media companies have provided masks, particular clothes, special shoes, and more incentives should be the company's obligation to fulfill them. The workers will prefer a safe, comfortable, clean, and a minimum level of disturbance environment since there is a relationship between individual characteristics and work motivation. During the COVID 19 period, the momentum was for media companies to emphasize their attention to their journalists. Media companies should not only have protocols when assigning journalists to coverage but also have protocols for saving journalists as human beings. This momentum can also be used by media companies to reaffirm that journalists are required to have clear work safety.
