Dealing With Grief

Loss and coping with loss are experiences that touch us throughout our lives. Since we spend so much time with our co-workers, the loss we feel is significant when they are gone. Many describe their work teams as being like a family, and the loss of a colleague can be impactful.

After a loss, it’s not uncommon for people to experience grief. Grief is not limited to experiences with death. Grief can manifest from the loss of a job, a move away from close friends, a divorce, or a tough breakup. To process and cope with these losses, you must understand grief itself.

Member Testimonial

An IMAP Account Manager was notified of a workplace death, and the Bussiness Agent told them another member was in bad shape.

The Account Manager contacted the Business Agent and asked what was needed – a crisis debriefing onsite or some support for the victim’s fellow members?

The BA had some personal concerns to tend to, so he felt he couldn’t take care of the member who was immediately involved, and Account Manager offered to contact the member.

The member was struggling and not feeling able to return to work. The Account Manager talked to the member and the member’s spouse to provide support, resources and listening.

The member only felt comfortable talking on the phone. As such, the Account Manager called the member throughout the week and gave assignments for both the member and spouse to help them deal with this traumatic situation and then followed up with them. The Account Manager also reached out to the Business Agent to keep him connected.

After a week, the Account Manager provided resources within the IMAP program for the member to continue getting some support through the IMAP. Education on what the program provided was shared with the member.
