ST Poll: Does your work send out notices when family members of coworkers die?

Posted by kilbooooooo (aka kkuphal) Oct 31 '22, 09:58

We get stuff like "Sad news: So and so's mom died"

Responses:

My (former) company didn't even tell us when an employee murdered another employee's sister (his wife). --nm - howie Oct 31, 10:31 3
- wait. The second employee was married to his own sister? -- nm - loosilu2 Oct 31, 10:56
- TO be fair, that's a tough subject line to craft. -- nm - loosilu2 Oct 31, 10:55
- omg -- nm - Diva Oct 31, 10:54
no deaths yet but a coworker did have a heart attack in May and they only sent out an email a month later, when she was still apparently hospitalized - hollywood big shot Oct 31, 10:30
No. -- nm - Qale Oct 31, 10:17
My old work would notify us if a client's direct family member died, but not personnel. - Max Oct 31, 10:13
no. -- nm - Andie Oct 31, 10:10
Occasionally. -- nm - loosilu2 Oct 31, 10:07
No. But my immediate supervisor would tell us about a team member event. -- nm - St. Epiphany Oct 31, 10:02
No. We’re lucky if we get notice a coworker died. - Will Hunting Oct 31, 10:01 3
- We don't get a notice (like an email), but usually it gets around the grapevine to those who might have worked/knew them. -- nm - JaxSean Oct 31, 10:21
- whoa -- nm - Andie Oct 31, 10:19 1
  - They swept one really nice guy’s Covid passing under the rug because he likely caught it from dipshits on his team. - Will Hunting Oct 31, 10:22
We get "Care Line" emails about deaths, births, etc. I don't know if they are automatic or not. When my dad died, I asked them not to send one out. -- nm - Volnelk Oct 31, 10:00
