What is the total potential bereavement leave days (in-state plus out-of-state) for the death of an immediate family member?

• A. 6 days
• B. 7 days
• C. 9 days
• D. 10 days

Answer: (C)

Bereavement leave is the time off provided to mourn and attend the funeral of an immediate family member. The policy separates days for in-state deaths and out-of-state deaths. In this department, three days are allowed for an in-state death, while six days are allowed for an out-of-state death. When you add those allowances together, the total potential bereavement leave days for the death of an immediate family member is nine days. This reflects the greater travel burden for out-of-state cases, resulting in a higher total allowance.
