For employers

Bereavement leave covers a few days. The paperwork takes months.

Offer your employees Passings Planner Pro or Premium at a group rate. They can plan ahead, keep important documents in one place, and work through the tasks that follow a death, at their own pace.

The gap between leave and the work that follows

Close to 60%

of executors with full-time jobs reported struggling to keep up with work.Reported by Hospice News, 2024 [1]

About 30%

of employees said they had to use vacation or sick days after the death of a family member.Center for Creative Leadership, 2023 survey of 715 workers, reported by SHRM [2]

95%

of employees surveyed in the US, Canada and the UK consider bereavement-related benefits valuable.2026 workplace benefits survey, reported by Insurance Business [3]

Some states require bereavement leave: up to 5 days in California, up to 10 workdays in Illinois and up to 2 weeks in Oregon, each for employers above a size threshold [4][5][6]. Leave gives people time off. It does not close accounts, find documents or settle an estate.

What employees get

Planning ahead

A private plan for their own wishes, and a secure place for the documents their family would need.

When a loss is near

Shared checklists so the family can divide the work.

After a death

A step-by-step list of the tasks that follow, from notifications to accounts.

Each employee's plan is their own. Employers never see what they store.

Passings is a planning and organizing tool. It does not give legal, tax or financial advice, and it is not a leave-compliance service.
