According to the Time-off Program Guide, "[p]ay is available for eligible team members who attend events for covered family members during normally scheduled work time."

"Non-exempt store team members with average hours of 20 or more are eligible for bereavement pay from the first full pay period after the first of the month following 6 full months of service."

"Non-exempt store team leaders with average hours of 20 or more are eligible for bereavement pay from the first day of the pay period that includes the 90th day of service from the hire date."

In the event of a death in the immediate family, up to 3 scheduled days is paid time.

In the event of a death of a close friend or distant relative, up to 4 hours is paid time.

How many days that you actually get paid for depends on the relationship that you have with the person who passed away and the number of scheduled shifts that you missed.

Example:

Relationship: Grandmother (immediate family)
Paid Time: Up To 3 Days
Time You Will Be Gone: The Next 4 Days
Scheduled Shifts That You Will Miss During Time Gone: 2 Shifts (each one is 8 hours long, not including meal break)
Bereavement Pay: 2 Days (16 Hours Total)

Relationship: Grandmother (immediate family)
Paid Time: Up To 3 Days
Time You Will Be Gone: The Next 4 Days
Scheduled Shifts That You Will Miss During Time Gone: 3 Shifts (each one is 7 hours long, not including meal break)
Bereavement Pay: 3 Days (21 Hours Total)
Thanks

Unpaid Bereavement Time and Extended Time Off:
Team members who are not eligible for [bereavement] pay, or who need extended time off, are eligible for unpaid time off. If this time exceeds 3 scheduled days for DC Team members or 7 calendar days for all other team members, this would be requested as a Personal Leave of Absence. The length of unpaid Personal Leave of Absence for purposes of bereavement/funeral time is determined and approved by the team member's leader and HR partner. (See LOA Guidelines for additional details on Target’s Personal Leave of Absence). Team members in Oregon may be eligible under the Oregon Family Leave Act for bereavement purposes. Team members should contact the Target Leave and Disability team.
