Dear Elizabeth,
We’re so sorry to hear about your mother’s death. Losing a family member is always difficult. Please let us know if there is anything that we can do to assist you during this trying time.
You are eligible for three days of paid time off as stated in our employee bereavement policy. We have, in the past, granted additional unpaid time off for employees when travel and personal business related to the death required more time away from work.
Please let your manager or Human Resources know if you need to request additional time off. We can also work with a flexible schedule if any family business needs to be taken care of during work hours.
We are committed to helping you through this rough time in life’s journey. We sympathize on the loss of your mother and we want to support your efforts to move forward with your life’s business. Please let us know how we can help.
Regards,
Susan Rodriguez
Human Resources Director
