What's bereavement pay?

Bereavement covers time-off for employees who experience the death of a family member or friend and need to attend a service or grieve.

To set up a Bereavement Pay type for an employee:

1. Go here.
   (Or click the Employees tab.)
2. Click an employee's name.
3. On the employee's overview page, look for the Pay section and click Edit.
4. Scroll down to the What additional ways do you pay? section and click to select the Bereavement Pay checkbox.
   
5. Click OK.

Next time you create a paycheck for the employee, the Bereavement Pay item appears. Simply enter the number of hours the employee took for bereavement during the pay period and Intuit Online Payroll uses the employee's regular pay rate to calculate the hours on the paycheck.
