Abstract:
The present study examined workaholism in Bulgaria and
Hungary during a critical pandemic situation caused by COVID-19. A total
of 805 respondents aged 18–70 years from Bulgaria and Hungary completed
the online version of the two-dimensional measure – dubbed the Dutch Workaholism Scale (DUWaS). The research aimed to reveal differences in
the state and modifications of this phenomenon during a pandemic situation.
The obtained results were processed with SPSS-25. The data analysis shows
that in conditions of a pandemic, the socio-economic context is the one that
causes the significant differences between Bulgarians and Hungarians in relation
to the Excessive (WE) and Compulsive workaholism (WC) levels.
