Projet de loi visant à flexibiliser la période du congé de deuil en cas d'euthanasie programmée et du congé pour soins palliatifs.

This is a Belgian federal bill, introduced in the Chamber of Representatives, that aims to make the timing of bereavement leave more flexible when a death follows planned euthanasia. It also seeks to adjust the leave available to workers who care for a person receiving palliative care. The bill falls under labour law, since it concerns the rights employees have to take time off work in these circumstances. Employees in Belgium who take bereavement leave after a planned euthanasia, or who take palliative care leave to support a dying relative, would be affected. Employers would need to accommodate the revised leave arrangements. This summary is based on metadata only, not the full legislative text.
