The Problem: The Silent Crisis
Death is the last taboo in the workplace. And the silence is costing you a fortune.

You have a 3-day bereavement policy. You have an EAP. You think you have it covered.

But when an employee loses a loved one, they are thrown into an operational crisis. They have to plan a funeral, find a will, call banks, and navigate a 200-item checklist of logistical tasks they have never encountered before.

Your EAP does not help with that. Your 3-day policy is a drop in the bucket. So they suffer in silence. Their productivity plummets. And eventually, they leave.

This is not a personal problem. It is a business problem with a staggering price tag: $225 Billion to the U.S. economy annually.

FAQs

Common Questions

Both. Bereave is a benefit for both employees and employers. It helps companies prepare and provide a compassionate, structured approach to bereavement. Employees and their families also get access to support for after-loss tasks and self-care.
No, Bereave does not replace what you have—it makes it more useful. We provide hands-on support, clear guidance, and practical tools that fit right into your existing processes. You can customize the platform and loss plan to match your team's needs.
Not completely. Bereave is a great bolt-on to those programs. Your EAP is fantastic for ongoing counseling. But it does not help employees figure out what to do in the first 72 hours when they are paralyzed by logistics. Your mental health benefits are crucial for long-term healing. But they do not give managers a script for that first conversation, or a framework for checking in without being intrusive.
Being prepared makes all the difference. Without a plan, grief can lead to confusion, stress, and missteps. With Bereave in place, your team knows exactly what to do, creating a smoother, more supportive experience for everyone when it matters most.
