Building Workplace Grief Literacy: Translating Delphi Consensus into the Grief First Aid Training and Accreditation Framework Item
Abstract
This paper presents the translation of findings from an international Delphi study into the Grief First Aid (GFA) training and accreditation framework. The Delphi study established expert consensus on the core principles of workplace grief literacy and bereavement training. These findings informed the development of a structured training and accreditation model designed to strengthen compassionate responses to grief within workplace environments. The framework operationalises expert consensus into competencies, instructor training standards, and organisational implementation pathways while maintaining clear boundaries between workplace support and clinical intervention.
