We will help local businesses to better support bereaved employees. We will aid the development of positive bereavement practices at work, & offer employees access to counselling & wellbeing information. This support will reduce anxiety around bereavement, & in turn help reduce employee absenteeism.

    Situation

    Bereavement & grief can impact every area of peoples’ lives, including their working life. It can be challenging for employers to manage bereavement in the workplace. Local employers have told us they sometimes struggle to offer appropriate support, have conversations about bereavement & loss, or manage the workplace impact. A compassionate, supportive approach can help reduce stress & anxiety for the employee & reduce bereavement related sick leave & performance issues for the employer.

    Solution

    Covid-19 has changed the way our hospice needs to work. We’ve been doing more work than ever supporting the local community, including working with local businesses. This new project will: · offer local businesses support & advice to develop & implement positive bereavement practices · offer employees access to bereavement counselling & wellbeing information · encourage conversations at work about loss & bereavement to remove stigma & embarrassment & help colleagues be more supportive
