If so, it's worth checking with the employer whether there is (a) any sort of death in service benefit and (b) whether there are any benefits in a workplace pension scheme.Googling on your question might have been both quicker and easier, if you're only after simple facts rather than opinions!3

He did and she got £2.5k within a week, helped to keep her afloat until she could catch her breath.Marcon said:One other (coldly practical) thought: was your daughter's partner in employment at the time he died?
