Losing a loved one is one of the most traumatic events one can experience. Having to deal with a loss while simultaneously dealing with legal issues and organizing a funeral is stressful enough on its own, which is why most countries have laws granting bereavement leave on a national level.

In the United States, there are no federal laws granting time off to grieve or attend a funeral. This leaves workers at the mercy of their employers, who could - if they see fit - deny any such requests.

According to a 2016 study by the Society for Human Resource Management, very few organizations offer paid bereavement leave, while one out of 10 doesn’t offer any at all.

One TikToker has posted a video alleging GameStop would deny bereavement leave because they have a one-week notice policy on time off.
