# §303-70.3. Death-related expenses during leave or non-workdays.


Agencies must pay death-related expenses when an employee dies while on leave or on a non-workday, while on TDY or stationed OCONUS, provided the requirements in [§ 303-70.1](/cfr/41/303-70.1.md) are met. However, payment cannot exceed the amount allowed if death had occurred while on duty at the TDY station or at the official station OCONUS.
