Summary/Abstract: Covid-19 is a shocking tragedy in the 21 st century. The transmission of this scary virus drains workers of energy, such as stress, conflict, and other problems. This study analyzes several factors that influence moral awareness, including team play, corporate interests, personal morality, rules and procedures, friendship, and motivation. The interview data capacity applied to 205 informants, of which they were public employees at the Department of Public Works and Public Housing–East Kutai Regency. The MRA method calculates two effects (direct effect and indirect effect). Our findings confirm that team play, corporate interests, personal morality, rules and procedures, and friendship significantly affect moral awareness. They have shown motivation to significantly strengthen the influence of team play, corporate interests, personal morality, rules and procedures, and friend- ship on moral awareness. Study outcomes enrich the academic climate through the expansion of theoretical and practical contributions.
