Funeral leave is intended to provide a leave eligible employee time to arrange
for and attend the funeral and related services of an immediate family member,
including travel time.
Immediate family is defined for this purpose as: parents, siblings or children
by blood or law; spouse; grandparents and grandchildren; or others considered
to be part of the household living under the same roof.
Up to five (5) days of funeral leave may be charged as sick leave. Additional
time necessary to meet the obligations outlined above shall be charged as
annual leave.
Funeral leave is not provided for estate legal obligations and/or an extended bereavement
period. Annual leave may be requested for these purposes.
