Independent Funeral Industry Support Services (IFISS) was established to help create a resilient, professional industry.
Having worked at every level of their industry, our founders Kathryn and Johanna saw there was a need for funeral operators and their staff to be able to access the types of support systems and structures that existed in similar workplaces that require such a broad and extensive range of skills.
Kathryn and Johanna noticed that a significant gap in support systems was when experiencing operational and staffing challenges. This is what led them to incorporate emergency relief into the IFISS’ range of services.
That’s right, the IFISS team is here to help!
IFISS can provide experienced personnel to cover staff shortages due to holidays, illness or an unexpected increase in workload. Our adaptable and agile team is able to take over a wide variety of roles seamlessly.
