Full time and part time employees are also eligible immediately upon hire for one unpaid day off to attend the funeral of an aunt, uncle, niece, or nephew.

Part time employees who receive bereavement pay receive it in proportion to the number of hours they are normally scheduled to work. Requests for bereavement leave should be directed to Human Resources as soon as possible.
