It’s important that the city step in and ask the HR department for the Fire Department to revise its policies on
bereavement for the loss of an unborn child. Having been through it as a father, it is a deeply sad event for parents
who have been expecting a child. To be denied some bereavement leave for the parent is cruel and short sided,
especially for a person working in a stressfully environment where mental health is critical. Please review this policy
and enact some rule changes. Thanks!
If you would like to submit additional documents (.pdf, .doc, .docx, .xls, .xlsx, .gif, .jpg, .png, .rtf, .txt) along with
your comment, you may alternately address comments@bozeman.net directly to ensure receipt of all
information.
Thank you,
City Of Bozeman
