There are two benefits provided by the City of Gresham.

Per the IAFF contract:
The City agrees to provide $50,000 life insurance and accidental death and dismemberment protection for each employee.

In the event of a line of duty death, the City of Gresham shall provide, and pay said medical/dental insurance premiums for a two (2) year period to a member’s immediate surviving family that would be eligible under the City plans had the member been active. Medical/dental benefits are to be, at a minimum, equal to the plans in effect for the unit membership. Aforementioned benefit shall be in effect if said line of duty death conformed to the Federal Public Safety Officers Benefit law. Said benefit shall cease if the surviving spouse remarries or after 24 months.
