I must be honest, I am really planning on attending the funeral, but I do plan on taking the time off from work. The funeral is out-of-state, and my car probably won't make the eight hour trip, but I really could use the time off. I really need one of these slips to take back to work with me. No need to judge, I know it's bad, but I still need a break from work, so please help if you can.

My work only requires a copy of the obituary, if they are asking for anything else then it would be a copy of the card they hand out at the funerals. I have been to several that there weren't enough to hand out so everyone did not get one. The easiest thing is to ask before you take the time off what exactly they need. If they want the card then when you go back tell them that there weren't any left and other family members didn't want to loan there's out for work related purposes fearing it would be damaged. Most places just need the obit though.

Start with the obituary. Then ask the funeral director for more help asking family members is a no no. Your job should give you at least a three day stay off of work read your rules or handbook at your job and ask your supervisor for an extra day because your still grieving. p

There is no such thing. They are putting pressure on you to see if it is true. When you get back to work, say look it up in the obituaries. I almost got slapped when I asked for proof of the funeral, Say "Your sick, there is no such thing as a funeral slip"

I never heard of a proof of attendance slip. Any employer I've ever dealt with would just take your word for it that a family member has died, and you would get time off according to their policy.

What your employer is wanting is the little program that the funeral home have that has the persons name, DOB &DOD, info about them and funeral info, they are normally right by the front door where the guest book is.

There are no slips that I know of, just supply an obit and your relationship to that person. Are you going to try to use any leave specific for immediate family type leave or just using up some leave for a break.

the obituary is usually just fine. If you're planning on taking off some unreasonable amount of time be ready to justify it.
