Beyond Bereavement Leave
How can we guide employers back to work with efficiency and productivity at the forefront? The answer lies in reshaping workplace culture to one well-versed in understanding and supporting employees through their grief journey.
While bereavement leave is a step in the right direction, it falls short in terms of fully optimizing cost savings, elevating employee retention rates, and enhancing productivity. The key lies in incorporating low-cost interventions, such as raising awareness about available grief support within the workplace. By doing so, we can effectively curtail absenteeism while simultaneously elevating workplace performance, commitment, and retention.
