An employee may take reasonable time off with pay, not to exceed three working days (24 hours), to attend or make funeral arrangements for members of their immediate family. This includes a parent, brother, sister, spouse, child, mother- or father-in-law and legal guardians or wards.
Up to one day with pay for funeral attendance will be granted for the death of a grandchild, grandparent, brother- or sister-in-law, or daughter- or son-in-law.
In situations requiring extensive travel time, an additional day may be granted.
Time off without pay or discretionary leave up to one day may be allowed, with the approval of the department head, to attend the funeral service of a close friend or associate.
