VIC Employer not willing to pay compassionate leave

[Briancrainfan]

So, last year my grandfather passed away and my boss is refusing to pay me for compassionate leave. I did provide a funeral notice and death certificate but they still denied it because I did not accrue it.

What are my options? Also, they are refusing to pay me for my issues when I have had issues with my login details and IT issues as well.

From the Fair Work website at Welcome to the Fair Work Ombudsman website:
- "All employees are entitled to 2 days compassionate leave each time an immediate family or household member dies or suffers a life threatening illness or injury". A grandparent is an immediate family member.
- "An employee does not accumulate compassionate leave and it doesn't come out of their sick and carer's leave (or annual leave) balance. It can be taken any time an employee needs it. If an employee is already on another type of leave (eg. annual leave) and needs to take compassionate leave, the employee can use compassionate leave instead of the other leave."
- "Full-time and part-time employees receive paid compassionate leave and casual employees receive unpaid compassionate leave."

As for your 'login and IT issues' - you'll need to provide more details.

Many thanks for that. What do you need? I have had issues with my vpn my details are monitored down to the seconds and I am also being micromanaged too.
