[quote=Anonymous]I have three relatives of an age that I'm expecting to need bereavement leave three times in the next 5 years.  Yes, I'll use my vacation/PTO, but if I need to go three times in one year, it won't be enough.  I have it written into my contract that bereavement leave can't be denied, but that if I don't have any vacation/PTO, my employer can choose to do 25% of my pay for however long I'm gone and 75% for matching time when I return, or 50-50%.  My employer felt better about not paying for those weeks, just advancing a portion of the pay for the next couple weeks, and I know that I'm not pushing for something that might cost me my job.  But, I also know that this is coming, and my preference is to use vacation/PTO, so unless all three pass in one year, it's unlikely to be an issue.

OP, can you talk to the nanny about advancing part of her pay while she's gone with the understanding that matching time after she returns will be the remainder for those weeks, not the full amount?[/quote]
