Pet Policy

Rockie · May 2001

Does anyone out there have a policy regarding bringing pets to work? Please share!

Pets are known to be stress reducers, and I understand some companies are allowing it as an incentive-type benefit. I have a special critter at home, but I would think twice...three times...before inviting that kind of trouble.

Never had a policy, but used to work in a mental health clinic where pet therapy was under discussion. Problem was many staff were allergic, some people were afraid of certain animals and then there is the issue of liabilty if a critter bites your favorite co-worker. i would avoid it.

Yes, we do not allow them to bring them to work. I have the policy if you would like me to send it to you. If you are interested, feel free to contact me at [email]larchetti@cyberdialogue.com[/email]
