Platte County Officials Debate Time Off & Grief Counselors For Courthouse Workers

After the tragic demise of Platte County Prosecutor Eric Zahnd locals are now confronted with questions of decorum and workplace accommodations. 

AWESOME INSIDERS share this real world debate . . .  

THERE'S NOW A PLATTE COUNTY COURTHOUSE FIGHT OVER PAID TIME OFF & ACCESS TO GRIEF COUNSELORS!!!  

Special thanks to experts for offering this objective advice . . .  

"A workplace should provide paid time off and grief counseling following a traumatic incident or the loss of a colleague. Taking these compassionate measures is highly recommended by human resource experts and crisis response professionals for several key reasons . . . Here's why: 

"Protects Psychological Safety: Expecting employees to maintain business-as-usual operations immediately after a traumatic event can exacerbate shock and distress.

"Prevents Cognitive Impairment Risks: Severe grief and shock significantly impair a person's focus, memory, and decision-making abilities. In many industries, forcing employees to work while highly distracted creates severe physical safety hazards.

"Allows for Shock Processing: Paid leave gives employees the necessary time to process the immediate shock away from the pressures of work deadlines."

And so . . . 

Because here at www.TonysKansasCity.com we've heard a great deal about how government work can be a thankless grind . . .

At the very least, we think it's important to consider accommodation for so many workers impacted by this tragedy.
