I'm curious, why wouldn't you just call in sick in that situation?
As far as I'm concerned any scenario where I'm unfit to come to work would fall under that category. That's more my opinion that any sort of legal classification.
Further to that, would your employer also deny that person a day off to grieve if they had a family member die? Or if they were in a serious non-injury accident (maybe they ran over a pedestrian or something)?
