Pregnancy loss can be life-altering and is commonly experienced as a profound grief, yet workplace support has historically been inconsistent or absent. With upcoming legislative changes set to recognise early pregnancy loss within statutory bereavement leave formally, organisations have a critical opportunity not only to comply but to lead with compassion and clarity.

This interactive session will help employers, HR professionals, and managers build the knowledge, confidence, and practical tools to prepare effectively, support employees meaningfully, and implement change beyond minimum requirements.

In this free session, we will cover:

• A clear overview of the upcoming extension to statutory bereavement leave under the Employment Rights Act.

• What these changes mean in practice for employers, HR professionals and managers.

• The opportunities and challenges of embedding this change into organisational policy, practice and culture.

• Practical guidance on implementation, communication and consistency.

• Key considerations, including potential limitations, gaps and exclusions, e.g., duration, perception of loss, paid/unpaid leave, etc.

• How to go beyond compliance - leading the way in creating a compassionate, inclusive and progressive workplace.

• Details of MIST Workshops Ltd’s policy writing and reviewing services.

Plus, an opportunity to ask questions and discuss real-world scenarios.
