So my father VERY recently passed. Later the day of his passing my mother’s bossed called to say “sorry for your loss, have you given any thought to your return?” Then the boss had the nerve to show up to the funeral home and ask again when she would be returning to work. My mother was off because my father was on hospice. Once her PTO bank ran out she is no longer getting paid. My question is: what recourse does she have? Is there something I can do? She lives in USA and works for a hospital. I would advise her to go to HR, but it is my understanding the boss is friends with HR head and anyone who has complained has been removed or written up. She is not ready to return and I don’t think she is financially in a place where she feels comfortable just walking away. I am also not sure she is mentally in the best state to be interviewing.
