Abstract	This systematic literature review investigates the COVID-19 pandemic's consequences for healthcare management, changes in occupational health policies and management of vulnerable workers, and efficiency of prevention measures used in warehouses and distribution centers. The pandemic has forced healthcare management to shift focus from effective clinical production and financial constraints to workers' well-being, resilience, quality of work-life, and flexibility. The review aims to assess changes in occupational health policies due to COVID-19, evaluate management strategies for vulnerable workers, and analyze the effectiveness and sustainability of preventive measures in workplace settings. A systematic method was used to search, screen and include articles exploring the effects of COVID-19 on healthcare management from PubMed, Google Scholar and Scopus platforms, focusing on papers published from 2020 to obtain the most recent pandemic-induced changes. Out of 86 articles, 32 underwent detailed review and 9 were included based on selection criteria. The literature review indicates that the COVID-19 pandemic shifted occupational health policies from reactive to proactive measures, effectively lowering transmission rates, though sustaining these changes remains challenging. In conclusion, the pandemic has transformed healthcare management, highlighting the need for proactive workplace health measures that will be essential in crafting resilient and responsive future strategies. The review outlines specific policy measures, the effectiveness of modifications for at-risk persons, and protective efforts, emphasizing that only high-quality, continually improvable practices are crucial for future health crises.
