RULE 22 - BEREAVEMENT LEAVE<br /><br />Bereavement leave will be allowed in case of the death of an employee&#039;s brother, sister, parent, child, spouse or spouse&#039;s parent, not in excess of three calendar days following the date of death. In such cases, eight hours&#039; pay will be allowed for each work day lost during bereavement leave. Employees involved will make provision for taking leave with their supervisor in the usual manner. Agreed to questions and answers to the National Agreements where applicable are by reference hereto incorporated herein.<br />----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br /><br />The attached file is a page excerpt from the BLET Agreement May 5, 2005 Codification. It spells out the formula of how to determine the three calendar days. I believe this is the same formula for all agreement covered employees at Amtrak.<br /><br />Mark off with crew after you&#039;re done with your current assignment to start bereavement. Don&#039;t forget to mark back up.
