Time off following a death in an employee's family - also called "bereavement leave" or "funeral leave" - a standard subject for a policy manual and the employee handbook. A death in an employee's immediate family is a traumatic experience that will negatively impact work, even if an employee does not take time off. Use this "Death in the Family" policy template to create a policy that fits the needs of your organization.
