After a Workplace Death

About IDSA

Most of our members have unfortunately lost a loved one due to a workplace incident, so we understand a lot more of what the bereaved person may be experiencing. We also have close contact with WorkSafe, police, the State Coroner’s office, unions and lawyers so if there is something the grieving family member needs to know we can often assist.

We hold regular forums, usually held at our office in Glenroy. Members share with others who have also experienced the workplace death of a loved one. Members also meet occasionally for lunch and other social get-togethers.
