Choice is compromised because of the pandemic. The imploding job market will cause individuals to make "choices" against their own well being.
Hypothetical:
1) Your cash-flow strapped employer, whose CEO has a history of possible SMI and legally questionable behavior, decides he has the bravery to risk lives and free the economy by opening up his factory against the advice of the state.
2) You, a 50 year old assembly line engineer with a history of smoking, are unable to find a new job because of the pandemic.
Luckily, from the server farm warmth of its reinforcement-learning heart approximation, your employers "allows" those that can work from home to do so. Unluckily for you, you can't do your job from home, so you go to work against your best judgement.
It's either that or be replaced immediately by a younger/healthier person who lost their job weeks ago because their former employer also chose not to plan for a rainy day.
Sound more like a bigger mouse trap.
