INTRODUCTION
The government announced covid-19 as Indonesia's first outbreak case in March 2020, which was faced a pandemic and impacted all sectors in Indonesia, including education (Asmuni, 2020). All corners of the world feel this pandemic, and the changes that occur, one of those changes is the education faced by individuals and teachers (Nuraqmarina, 2021).
The Indonesian economy has become a victim of this pandemic. The government is taking steps to overcome it by implementing the Large-Scale Social Restriction method because this determination makes the economy weaken (Prayitno et al., 2021). School graduates who had just graduated with only limited employment opportunities (Prisrilia & Widawati, 2021). The  pandemic has resulted in changing working hours, work that can't be done many things for some time, resulting in work stress for current workers (Mangowal et al., 2022). Higher unemployment with a minimum of available jobs makes companies choose employees with a provision. Employees who register with a competition with fewer jobs make Vocational High School graduates anxious because of the lack of expertise and work experience (Azmi & Suprihatin, 2021).
The 21st century requires individuals to follow this social life, both challenges and choices made, one of which is an adjustment (Siregar, 2003). The stressful condition experienced by the pandemic for students is reducing the number of vacancies, which results in anxiety before getting a job (Zwagery, 2021).
The lack of experience for fresh graduates coupled with this pandemic has made their worries in finding a job plus the company a crisis during a pandemic (Prisrilia & Widawati, 2021). Individuals must become professionals when graduating from vocational high school with the existing competition (Elmanda et al., 2022). The reality in the world of work during the COVID-19 pandemic is that the company is terminated unilaterally because the obligation to pay salaries can't be carried out (Syafrida et al., 2020). This COVID-19 pandemic has hurt the economy, which requires companies to terminate employment to avoid losses that can't pay salaries to workers (Saputra, 2021).
Stress management is needed in the world of work. If you do stress management, then it will come quickly, but on the contrary, if you can't fail in stress management, it will have severe implications in the world of work (Mann, 2004). The community is expected to be able to adapt in the future to face an economy that won't subside (Prayitno et al., 2021). Learning is currently limited due to the pandemic causing the lessons given to individuals to be less than optimal, the level of work readiness of knowledge, skills and attitudes (Mariati, 2021).
As the front line, counsellors offer counselling services through counselling guidance related to personal, social, learning and career development and direction (M. P. Sari & Herdi, 2021). Solutions to stress are carried out by classical services, group guidance, group counselling, and individual counselling. Guidance and counselling are essential for planning and preparing students' future career plans, which aim to assist and facilitate individuals to achieve optimal developmental tasks (Nengsih & Simarmata, 2019), especially individuals in stress management.
Counsellors must be skilled in preventing stress at counselee (Purwadi et al., 2021). The role of the counsellor in the adjustment of students in the world of work is crucial. The world of work has so much competition that students need careful preparation and planning while at school to prepare individuals to be successful in the future. Improving stress management in adjusting to work can use a behavioural approach to manage stress. This study focuses on managing stress for adjustment to the world of work. Finally, the data presented is given a theoretical view of something through discussions supported and compared through various scientific studies.

Managing stress
Managing Stress in the present is very important for the individual and has its impact.
Managing stress is a problem that must be resolved immediately for individuals.

Ability to Manage Stress
The ability to manage stress is needed to maintain physical and psychological self. The pressures and demands that are so heavy on existing social skills are required to have the ability to manage stress.
An individual needs the conclusion from Table 2 about the ability to manage stress.
Work has an impact on enthusiasm at work and loyalty. Effects that can't handle stress include problem-focused coping, emotional focused coping, and maladaptive coping. The product focuses on problems that occur, individual emotions, and problems that aren't good for future issues.

Adjustment in the World of Work
Adjustment to the world of work is needed to socialise with the surrounding environment and carry out work tasks as assigned. (2017) Step Steps in adjusting to independence in the existing environment, individual commitment to increasing work effectiveness  Good self-adjustment causes individuals to grow in a suitable environment around them.
Individuals can also pass through adolescence smoothly with reasonable adjustments. The atmosphere at work, school, and home also affects the individual's life. Adolescents must adapt to the surrounding environment so that individuals can become fluent in the next stage of growth (Maharani & Andayani, 2003).
Individuals can also adjust to the friendships they get to be able to take comfort in their environment. The factor causing not to change isn't being familiar with friends in the background. Therefore, individuals have close friends in their setting to make them closer in a group by telling stories and communicating.
That familiarity makes the individual feel comfortable in that environment. The influence of peer groups affects individuals' adapt themselves (Estiane, 2015). The reality is that problems exist and are everywhere, so individuals in vocational high schools are expected to be able to adjust to the world of work. Having the characteristics of an ordinary worker doesn't just give up but is more motivated to respond. Employment dynamics will develop from this behavioural pattern, and new stimuli will improve work performance.
The body is undoubtedly harmful, but stress can also positively impact yourself. Positive pressure results in work or academics not delaying work. Jobs or academics cause a lot of pressure, but when individuals can manage that stress, the force that was initially negative stress makes the given job positive stress.
Therefore stress management is needed in managing the existing world of work.
Prolonged stress can affect emotional, physical and psychological. Emphasise that work stress has a significant effect on work performance.
The first journal also argues that work stress is very influential on unstable emotions, feeling uneasy, being alone, having trouble sleeping, smoking excessively, not being able to relax, being anxious, tense, nervous, increasing blood pressure and experiencing digestive disorders (Sunarsi, 2018). Therefore, individuals must be able to manage the existing stress to be ready to face what is happening in the world of work today. Techniques used in stress management can use behavioural strategies and selfmanagement to improve personal stress management. This research still has many shortcomings that need to be investigated.

CONCLUSION
A good relationship with problem-solving at work, accepted workload, and existing environment. Good self-adjustment causes individuals to grow a good atmosphere.
Individuals also adjust to the friendships they get to be able to take comfort in their environment. An environment where individuals feel accepted is also one of the factors that individuals want and need to survive in that environment. Acceptance of the environment can be appreciated by having a positive in mind. Jobs or academics cause a lot of stress, but when individuals can manage that stress, stress that was initially negative stress makes the given job positive stress. Therefore, individuals must be able to handle the existing stress to be ready to face what is happening in the world of work today.
