Abstract: This crisis caused by COVID-19 has involved educational systems around the world to address new perspectives on certain aspects specific to work, crucial in achieving a quality educational act by teachers. The aim of this study is to identify the main measures adopted by Romanian educational institutions in a pandemic context, as well as to determine employees' perceptions (teachers) regarding the effects of these measures on specific aspects of work (job satisfaction, empowerment, organizational loyalty). An online questionnaire was applied to collect the data. SPSS statistic program was used for data processing. According to the answers of the 33 respondents, the measures adopted by the Romanian educational institutions in a pandemic context focused mostly on those to prevent the spread of the COVID-19 virus, being followed by those aimed at providing organizational support in the form of purchase of devices, licenses for educational software; providing feedback, communication, motivation / impetus. The results of the research indicated that these measures affected the didactic activity carried out by the respondents in a positive way; made them feel more professionally satisfied; contributed to the development of digital skills; they determined them to be self-taught in digital learning.
