Our experts at Jones Chase addressed the current legal mechanism for dealing with grief, offering valuable insight into the legal responsibilities and challenges employers may face.
 
We covered the following topics:
 
Lizzie shared her invaluable insights on how grief can affect someone, what steps can be taken to support people better which are often misunderstood or not known to employers, and how she began working with corporations on their grief provisions;
 
Susanna Rynehart, Partner, discussed Prolonged Grief Disorder, explaining how in some cases it may be classified as a disability and how it might impact both employers and employees;
 
Domonic Lyons, Associate Solicitor, explored the legal aspects of this underrepresented topic. Discussed current legislation, highlighting how the focus of grief policies is often limited to death and bereavement, while other profound life circumstances can equally fall under grief.
