Bereavement pay, WA state

Does anyone in WA state have information regarding bereavement pay requirements? Washington state legislation says employees are entitled to 3 days of bereavement pay, but L&I website states that employers are not required to provide any bereavement pay. These two clearly contradict each other and I can't afford to not work right now, so trying to see if I can get at least a few days of pay. Thanks for your help in advance. WA state legislation: https://apps.leg.wa.gov/wac/default.aspx?cite=357-31-250 WA state L&I (labor and industries): https://www.lni.wa.gov/workers-rights/leave/holiday-vacation-bereavement-leave#:~:text=Washington%20State%20does%20not%20require,does%20not%20enforce%20these%20agreements.
