Workplace Bereavement Advocate Training
We know that death is not a boardroom conversation. But, although bereavement happens to everyone, many of us are either reluctant to talk about it, or are worried about knowing what to say, or how to say it.
At Workplace Bereavement, we work to raise awareness about the difficulty of losing someone close to you, and how bereavement will inevitably affect your work.
As a specialist workplace bereavement consultancy, Workplace Bereavement offers comprehensive and flexible workplace bereavement training packages. This service is tailored to each business that we work with, to ensure the best fit for their specific context.
What is workplace bereavement training?
Workplace bereavement training involves providing employees with the tools, skills and knowledge required to support their bereaved colleagues. This could be in the event of a family member, friend, child, pet or someone that is close to them passing away. When you work with Workplace Bereavement, you can nominate advocates for your workplace. This could be groups of staff or individuals, such as company CEOs, managers and HR personnel.
We will then guide them through our specialist workplace bereavement trainer training course, to give them the necessary skills to act as a bereavement advocate within your workplace.
What are the benefits of Workplace Bereavement training?
Our pioneering programme is an invaluable addition to any employee well-being provision strategy.
Its benefits can be felt across a company, and include:
- A bereavement advocate is a fantastic way to foster improved employee well-being.
- The well-being of your workforce is critical to success.
- You can ensure your workforce feels supported, and build their loyalty to your business.
- By supporting your bereaved employees, you can decrease staff turnover and recruitment costs.
