How many people out there would say "fuck it" to a job that wouldn't let you take a day to go to a funeral?

Then, unless she is common-law with you, she is unlikely to get paid funeral leave. However she is far more likely to be allowed to take vacation or unpaid leave unless she is essential staff. She also *may* be covered by a union and therefore have access to a stewart who could explain the situation better than I.

(Note... very short term contracts may be different in ways I do not know about.)

She works with a temp agency. They have placed her at Health Canada, but it is not Health Canada's rules which are in effect. It's the agency's, and they tend to be somewhat harsh (my favourite was finding out you don't get paid for stat holidays unless you've been working for the previous three months. Possibly it was four months. Either way, *not happy*).

But from what I recall from working at Industry, your summary is correct.
