Season 2 Episode 11 Dealing With Grief In The Workplace

Welcome to another episode of the When Life Stops Podcast. In today's episode- Episode 11 we share another important topic- Dealing With Grief in the Workplace.

 

Grief can severely impact a person's ability to concentrate, come to work on time and be productive. The number of grievers has significantly increased since the pandemic started in 2020.

 

In episode 12 season 1 we talked about the impact of grief on our work. In today's episode, we really dive into our organisations and businesses can support grievers.

 

We (Stella and Detola) both shared our experience of going back to work after our losses and how isolated we felt.

 

We shared how colleagues can support grievers at work, with tips on what to say and not to say when a griever returns to work.

 

We also shared tips on how organisation leaders can create a healthy grief culture at work.

It was a very insightful packed episode as we shared loads of tips for grievers, colleagues and organisations to address grief in the workplace.
