We have also had to call upon WLS to offer grief counseling and support to assist our staff in times of difficult and loss. We have received overwhelmingly positive reports/ feedback concerning their responsiveness and empathy. Their dealing with employees during sensitive times has left an impact that translated to an increase in our usage of their services.
