Abstract: Covid-19 pandemic entered Indonesia around February 2020. The government and stakeholders took policies and initiatives to anticipate the spreading of the health problem. Among other countries, The Indonesian government has taken precaution policies, namely “lockdown,” “large-scale-social-restriction,” and “stay-at-home” period. A stay-at-home plan means that people are prevented from going outside their home and should stay-at-home for a specific period, as announced by the government. News disclosed that people start feeling tension and stress because of the prevention, precisely because people cannot do the everyday work and leisure routines outside their home. It is believed that the stay-at-home condition has causing unhappiness to the community. On the other hand, opinion grows that the critical state of stay-at-home is inevitable. People have to learn to cope with the new uncertain situation and need to embrace it deep down into their life. This descriptive research explores people's happiness from the perspective of work and leisure during the stay-at-home period within the covid-19 pandemic. Online questionnaires were distributed using probability simple random sampling, that 684 good feedbacks were collected and analyzed. The result of this study shows that most respondents are still working, sometimes heavier and more prolonged in time; that people tend to spend their leisure time with family, some keep themselves busy with entertainment activities, and the rest doing things that bring peace to their inner selves. In conclusion, this research indicates that most people are still happy, try to stay happy, and feel less comfortable during their stay-at-home period. The study is of significance that the result is to be used for scientific justification for the following government policy or initiative in dealing with the Covid-19 pandemic.
