I used to work in a large pharma manufacturing plant. We had someone on our team pass away unexpectedly as a result of an accident that took place outside of work. He was a 1st shift worker and we shut down for the day and brought in a grief counselor and had a long long meeting where everyone could just talk.
We had another employee in a different area pass away on the job due to a heart attack and that area shut down for the day.
I hate to be callous but it happens, people have heart attacks and strokes and pass away unexpectedly, I think every company should have a contingency plan for it that is respectful of their coworkers. You don't go to work to make friends but it's impossible not to care about people you see 8 hours a day 5 days a week.
