What this is for
The moments your team will face — whether you're ready or not.
An employee suddenly declining
Someone crying in a 1:1
Someone disclosing abuse
Someone distracted by court proceedings
A leave request
A manager saying the wrong thing
HR can immediately picture these. We give you language, structure, and a response framework so the moment doesn't depend on whoever happens to be in the room.
