Question

Hello.

The mother of one of the employees in the company passed away, and the employees went to comfort their colleague during working hours. Who can authorize such a thing: the CEO, the deputy CEO, or any team leader?

Answer

Shalom u’vracha.

For each worker, the person above him who gives him his work instructions has the authority to decide in all such matters, even if the CEO and his deputy are not involved in every such decision.
