Bereavement Pay Policy

We currently have a rather old bereavement policy that was designed to prevent fraud and abuse but doesn't seem to provide for the more serious issues related to death of a spouse, child or dependent parent. I was hoping some of you could send me some sample copies of your policies to help me show my leaders what others are doing to help team members during these difficult times.

Thanks in advance for your help! AArway@snaac.com
