Abstract: Abstract Bereavement or the death of a loved one can come at anytime and is unexpected. Previous studies have shown that employees that experience bereavement require proper organisational support in order to return back to the workforce as a productive employee. The current study proposes that work life balance, organisational justice, and virtue ethics create a conducive environment for the grieving employee. Data for the current study will be collected across multiple industries and examined via structural equation modelling using SmartPLS. Organisations that focus on these three important employee-centered HRM practices improve employee productivity, and help them adjust to these changes during the grieving phase.
