happened to me with my nan which i was very close too
they said only if my parents or sister passed away they would give me time off
the only way i could do it was book my holiday
so i did that, then took a week on the sick as i still wasnt ready to return to work
companies are wankers when it comes to things like this
many thanks, i work as a postman for royal mail, i have this week off as holiday but its hardly holiday leave now!
a member of work just had 4 days off as her father-in-law passed away, and thats not even blood related
