[QUOTE="UpstateNYUPSer(Ret), post: 710529, member: 12570"] Bereavement leave is a part of our contract so that employees can grieve the loss of a loved one without worrying about loss of wages during that period. It is not meant to be a personal vacation and I would think that anything beyond one day, at the most two, in this situation would be abusing the privilege. There is not going to be a service which leads me to believe that her remains will be cremated. I would think that the family will gather to honor her memory and he most certainly should be given the opportunity to attend that gathering. Four days off with no funeral or service? I guess you and I really are not cut from the same cloth. [/QUOTE]
