Uk Question

My employer has scheduled me in to work the day after a family funeral. I have expressed concern I will be distressed and not in a position to.Work, but due to other staff being on Holiday, I am forced to Work. Can they really make me do this?

Unless it is in your employment agreement or union agreement, they can do whatever they want. GO to work and cry a lot. Maybe they will send you home. Sorry for your losses and your insensitive bosses.
When I came back to work after my only brother died, my bosses were horrid to me. Your not alone.

Yes. Work schedules are at employer discretion.

If you mean can they send a posse out with guns to bring you to work, no. But they can schedule you. And if you refuse, they can fire you.

Yes of course they can. They have a business to run and employees private lives are of no concern to them. Tough but true.

Generally yes unless the deceased was a very close relative (wife/husband, parent, child) in which case you would probably need more time.

Depends on the relative.....immediate family no.......but extended family sure why not.......

I be suspect of someone using such an occasion to swing the lead....if they are then they should be ashamed of themselves.......not suggesting for one second that's the case in this instance.....!

Unless it is a son, daughter, brother, sister or parent then yes they can and legally they dont have to give the day off work, Good Luck
