[quote=Anonymous]My best friend recently died due to Stage IV brain cancer. I grew up in foster care and had/have no immediate family so this best friend was my entire family. She died last week and I am grieving heavily right now. I work in a community summer day camp with young children, ages 4-6. Since it will be so difficult working around kids next week while I am grieving I asked my boss if I could take next week off. I live in CA where I am entitled to 5 days off unpaid. However this law only applies to immediate family, though it is up to an employer’s discretion on whether to include close friends. My employer said they would make an exception due to my circumstances for this friend. However they said that this law only applies to full-time employees and I am only 30 hrs a week. Does anyone here know if bereavement laws only apply to fulltime employees? Tia.[/quote]
