Zakir HussainAnsari

Dear Zakir HussainAnsari

After reviewing all of the information regarding the alleged policy violations and the results of the predisciplinary meeting conducted on DATE, there is sufficient evidence to show that you were sleeping on the
job.
This letter is to inform you that you are discharged from your position as a Project Manager with this
agency as of 3:00 p.m., DATE. This action is based on your failure to adhere to the following policy:
DOC Policy 1.3.2, Guidelines for Employee Performance and Conduct
V. PROCEDURES:
A. On-the-Job Performance
Employees are responsible for performing duties as specifically assigned either orally or in writing, and as
guided by the Code of Ethics and Department policies.
C. Unacceptable Performance and Conduct
11. Failure to remain alert and vigilant while on the job.
Your disregard for this policy has been specifically demonstrated when on DATE you were found sleeping in
the perimeter vehicle, an armed post, while on duty. You never notified your supervisors regarding possible
not feeling well or a need to be relieved from your post. Your negligence in carrying out your duties
jeopardizes the safety and security of inmates, staff, and the public. For this reason and your probationary
status I am terminating you from your position as a Correctional Officer with Montana Department of
Corrections.
You may provide a written response to this letter. You may also file a grievance in accordance with the
provisions of your collective bargaining agreement.
You are required to return immediately all state property still in your possession.
Sincerely,

NAME
