[Audio] We understand that bereavement leave is a crucial benefit for employees experiencing a difficult time. Let's review the details of our bereavement leave policy. Specifically, what constitutes a qualifying family member for our paid leave? According to our policy, a qualifying family member includes the spouse, children, step-children, parents, step-parents, grandparents, brother, sister, father/mother-in-law, sister/brother-in-law, grandchildren, and spouse's grandparents. We want to ensure that our employees have the necessary support during this challenging period. By providing this benefit, we aim to demonstrate our commitment to their well-being and provide a supportive environment..
[Audio] We offer our employees a supportive environment that allows them to take care of their personal needs, including the loss of a family member. This policy outlines the stipulations for bereavement leave, ensuring that employees have the necessary time to grieve and make arrangements. We understand that every situation is unique, and our flexible policy accommodates the needs of the impacted employee. We allow leave to be taken in consecutive days or individually, within 30 days of the funeral, unless other arrangements are made with the responsible supervisor. Additionally, the time paid for bereavement leave is counted as hours worked for the purpose of computing weekly overtime. This ensures that employees are not penalized for taking the time they need to cope with a difficult situation. We appreciate your attention to this important benefit, and we thank you for your support in providing a caring and understanding work environment. Thank you..
