GriefWork
Healing work-related harm.
Experiencing the death of someone close to you can feel overwhelming.
If you’ve lost someone due to an incident on a work site, in a truck crash, from a suicide related to work, or from a fatal work illness, GriefWork is committed to helping you in your recovery.
Together, with partner organisations and individuals committed to creating safe, healthy working communities, we aim to reduce the impact of work-related harm.
GriefWork is funded by WorkSafe Victoria.
Support we can offer
- Individual, tailored counselling - online or in person
- Visits to your home or a location where you might feel more comfortable
- Support from peers with lived-experience
- Meaningful activities in the community, such as memorial events, workshops, and retreats.
As you journey through grief, you will have the opportunity to connect with others who have had similar experiences and join facilitated activities and gatherings in respectful and supportive environments.
Previous memorial events can be viewed online here.
