[quote=Anonymous] It's about practical considerations. Whoever the deceased was in relation to the employee and however expected the death, the legwork to organize a funeral can be a giant hassle that can take a long time, especially if the deceased needs to be transported a long way away to their hometown for a burial (in which case there are two funeral homes to deal with), or there are other complications. So if the person asking for leave is the person who is responsible for organizing the most stuff, a week is tight. If the person just has to attend a funeral organized by others, then they only need the travel and attendance time, and a week is a lot. The problem faced by workplaces is that rules aren't customized, so if the closest manager, who can waive requirements or look the other way, isn't a person with maturity and life experience, they can enforce the rule in a way that creates additional stress in situations that are already emotionally difficult.
