Heartbreaking news about Gcina Dhladhla, May she rest in power🙌🏾 As an HR professional, this tragedy strikes at the core of why employee wellbeing must be our priority. A life has been lost, she never returned home. This is about every workplace where: • Employees feel pressured to come in when ill. • Leave requests are treated as inconvenience rather than a genuine need. • Disciplinary is punitive. • Workplace pressures override human dignity. Let's use this moment to reflect on our own workplace practices. Are we creating cultures where employees feel safe to prioritize their health? Where wellbeing truly matters over outputs?
