Highlights Organizations in the hospitality industry need to ensure safe operation by facilitating employee compliance with COVID-19 safety measures. A deep approach towards compliance with COVID-19 is a four-stage psychological process including 1) heightened risk and health awareness, 2) perceived utility value, 3) behavioral adaptation, and 4) integration. This deep compliance is driven by both management COVID-19 safety practices as well as organizational crisis response strategies that prioritize safety and maximize job security.
