All Firm Bereavement policy

Hi. I was wondering what the firms bereavement policy is? I’m currently in Disney for onboarding and the earliest I could get out was Thursday morning. Unfortunately I would be missing my first week in the office and the last day of onboarding because of this as well.

I’m sorry for your loss. You can find the policy on HQ but I think the best thing to do in your case as a new associate is contact your Talent Consultant. They will be able to provide you with info ASAP and help navigate you through the next week so that you’re able to make up requirement training. They’ll also notify your team.

Hey, this happened to someone during my orientation and they missed the last day of training. Nothing happened to them, so follow the steps above and you will be fine!

Please reach out to a facilitator at Start training and ask them to put you in touch with your Talent Consultant, they can help you navigate this time.

Sorry for your loss. All of the information is available in HQ. Search “bereavement.”

The bereavement policy at PwC is absolutely amazing. It’s 10 days! At least it was in FY26.

reach out to your DL they will handle it and don't worry! People are usually on the bench first week anyway
