3 months? And for grandparents? You should be lucky and thankful to get 3 days, especially if your company is still paying you.

NY bill mandates 3 months paid bereavement leave, even when grandparents die

New York lawmakers have approved a bill that would give employees in the Empire State three months paid bereavement leave to mourn the loss of a loved one – in turn, spurring concerns among business owners that the policy would create a staffing crisis.

The expansive bill would cover the death of a spouse, domestic partner, child, parent, in-law, grandparent or grandchild. It was passed by the state Senate and Assembly at the end of the legislative session in June and now awaits the signature of Democratic Gov. Andrew Cuomo.

The state’s current Paid Family Leave law gives employees paid time off to bond with a new child or care for a sick relative. But the new legislation significantly expands leave policies, allowing grieving employees to collect 50 to 67 percent of the average weekly wage for up to 12 weeks.

How soon will we see certain idiots knocking of a grandparent to get a 3 month long paid vacation!!??
Not as far fetched as one may at first glance believe.. After all such people, some so lazy that they will not bath more than once every three months,
are capable of such and having no regrets after doing so.
A sad truth tis it not?? -Tyr

Or just claiming there was a death and milk it for all they can. :rolleyes: I would demand proof for anything beyond about 5 days.

Anything and everything to impact Trump's policies that have improved the business world. If employers have to lay folks off, the Democrats will use that as PROOF Trump's ideas havent worked. They are evil, vile and hell-bent on destroying anything that's GOOD for society.

Small businesses will not be able to absorb the costs that this kind of bill will cause. The government will then wring their hands and wonder why so many businesses have either left the state or closed down.
