Grief Awareness and Postvention Training | DayOne
Welcome to DayOne colleagues
You’re invited to a live, in-person session with Helen from The Flying Fish Company®
The sessions will focus on grief and loss in the context of trauma-exposed work, followed by a second session on suicide postvention in the workplace.
This page offers an overview of the sessions and what to expect to gain from the day.
Participants will explore:
What grief is in a workplace context, including non-death losses such as life-changing injury, role change, identity loss and cumulative impact
How grief can show up in ourselves and in the people we support, influencing communication, concentration, emotional regulation and connection
Why supporting others through trauma can carry an emotional impact, even when we are skilled, experienced and well supported
What helps and what doesn’t when responding to grief at work, including common misconceptions and unhelpful pressures to fix or say the right thing
Space to reflect on how grief and loss may be present in work, often in subtle or familiar ways
Practical ways to strengthen confidence and sustainability through shared language, reflection and awareness rather than disclosure or problem solving
