The impact of grief in the workplace is often hidden, yet
it is the underlying cause of billions of dollars in lost
revenue to businesses, both large and small. According to
The Grief Index survey in 2003, 85% of managers indicated
that their decision making was very poor after their loss
and 90% of those with physical jobs reported a higher incidence
of injuries.
The fear, misperceptions, and lack of information about
grief are the main factors impacting the workplace. With
education and an appropriate plan, the workplace can better
respond to employees needs, creating a more positive experience
at work and resulting in greater productivity and loyalty.
PATHWAYS grief counselors consult with managers and supervisors
to assist in developing response plans based on specific
needs.
