Hello, I’m Kelly!
I’m an Irish wolfhound, but do not let the name of my breed frighten you. If you visit me, you will see that both my personality and fur are as soft and gentle as a shaggy carpet. Playing in big, open spaces is one of my favourite ways to spend my time.
They say I’m a people-lover, although, some children can be a little bit scary to me. I’m best suited for a home where I’m the only animal to receive all of the love and attention. I hope that with a little bit of the luck of the Irish, I will �nd my forever home very soon!Please come visit me.

Dear Working Wise: Do our labour laws guarantee bereavement leave? My mother passed away this weekend and I would like to know what the law is. My company gives three days off when an immediate family member passes away, but my wife works on contract. Is she entitled to bereavement leave as well? Signed Somber Son
Dear Working Wise:
Working WiseWorking WiseWorking Wise
Dear Somber:
Please accept my sincere condolences on the passing of your mother.
The Canada Labour Code requires federally regulated industries, like: banks, airlines, railways, telecommunications, media and crown corporations to provide Bereavement Leave.
For more information on federal Bereavement Leave and federally regulated employees, visit www.labour.gc.ca.
Alberta's Employment Standards do not require employers to provide paid or unpaid bereavement leave.
However, I can understand why you might assume that employers are required to o�er bereavement leave since so many employers voluntarily choose to do so.
Alberta companies choose to o�er bereavement leave because of compassion, because other companies o�er this bene�t, and because grieving employees are more likely to be distracted and unable to concentrate at work.
They may show up, because they are expected to, but they will be less e�ective and may be at greater risk of injury at work.
This loss of productivity and workplace safety is sometimes referred to as presenteeism.
According to Harvard Business Review article, Presenteeism: At Work—But Out of It, presenteeism can cut productivi-ty by a third or more and may actually cost an employer more than absenteeism.
Like other preventive health and safety programs, an e�ective bereavement policy is proactive. O�ering support to grieving employees is not only compassionate—it can also save time and resources.
Employers can support bereaved employees by acknowledging their grief and establishing an e�ective bereavement policy.
A tip sheet for managers and supervisors who are interested in establishing a bereavement policy, and supporting their grieving sta�, is available on the Alberta Learning Information Service (ALIS) website at http://alis.alberta.ca. The tip sheet is called Employers: Helping Your Employees Cope With Loss.
Grieving In The Workplace: Coping With Loss is an ALIS tip sheet for employees and co-workers. It covers how grief can a�ect you, how to work through grief, how co-workers can support you, and what not to say to a grieving co-worker.
Do you have a work-related question?Send your questions to Working Wise, at [email protected]. Charles Strachey is a manager with Alberta Human Services. This column is provided for general information.
