Qu'est-ce que Bereavement Leave ? | Glossaire RH | BambooHR
Time off granted to an employee following the death of a close family member or dependant.
Bereavement leave gives employees time away from work to grieve, make arrangements and attend a funeral after losing someone close. It recognises that people cannot simply carry on as normal during profound loss.
Policies vary in generosity, but the best go beyond the bare minimum, offering flexibility on the amount and timing of leave and signposting support such as an Employee Assistance Programme.
A compassionate, clearly communicated policy protects wellbeing and signals that the organisation genuinely cares for its people.
