We offer up to five days of paid leave for the death of an immediate family member (spouse, child, mother, father, brother, or sister).
We also offer up to two days of paid leave for a grandparent (or a spouse's grandparent), mother-in-law, father-in-law, brother-in-law, or sister-in-law.
Any other family is non-paid time and usually only one day to attend the funeral.

We have a tiered approach:
5 days: Spouse, child, step-child
4 days: Parent/Legal Guardian
3 days: Sibling, Child's spouse
2 days: Grandparent, grandchild, step-parent, spouses parent
1 day: step-sibling, spouses grandparent, spouses grandchild, spouses sibling, sibling's spouse
We limit it to 10 days in a 12 month period and allow people to take any additional time off as PTO.
I'm open to suggestions on revision if you have any!

My organization offers 24 hours (3 work-days) of paid time off for the death of an immediate family member. Although our union contract defines what is considered 'immediate family', it is not black & white and allows for some wiggle room. We do not have a maximum amount of time off the employee can take out of their personal leave bank in addition to the 24 hours of bereavement leave given.
