How can we support staff who have experienced pregnancy loss?
12 December 2021
Learn more about pregnancy loss, the effects on staff, and the support available.
Dear colleagues,
I would like to invite you to an event to learn more about pregnancy loss, the effects on staff, and the support available.
Date: Friday, 21 January 2022
Time: 13.00 - 14.00 UK time
There are three main objectives of the event:
- Identifying the need to create safe spaces for an otherwise difficult conversation about grief and loss
- Sharing best practice by hearing the lived experience of people who have benefitted from support provisions in place
- Considering HR policies that embed leave provision, emotional support, time off, etc. in cases of pregnancy loss
I have invited Madiha Sajid, Co-Chair of National Network for Parents & Carers in HE, (and ex-UCL employee and ex-Chair of UCL PACT) to chair the session and we have guest speakers to share their experiences. I will also be talking about how UCL can support its staff in this area.
Please book your space by signing up .
I look forward to welcoming you.
Lorren Rea
Head of Employment Policy
