Pets at Work Policy

Goal

The City of Duncan is committed to promoting a safe and healthy workplace and environment for its employees. The City acknowledges that pets can create a fun, happy environment, encourage interactions among people, and get employees up for regular exercise breaks. Pets are also a responsibility, and the opportunity to have them at the workplace is a privilege all participants must respect.
