Read the following Scenario
Keep in mind that each of the parties you are writing have different interests and your letters should be adjusted to give them what they need to know. In some situations it is best not to
share all the information. Think about your readers as you compose. Your employer has always provided free child care to all employees with children ages 3 months to 5 years. For its 50
years of operation, the company has taken great pride in being a family-friendly employer. Tough economic times for the industry and rising costs of operation for the child care center,
however, now require that the company begin charging parents $100 per month per child for the services of the child care center. According to the president of the company it was either
that or freeze wages for all employees or lower the already slim dividend paid to the company’s stockholders and risk a loss of investors. The president of the company directs you to write
three letters regarding this important change: one to parents using the child care center, one to all employees, and one to the stockholders. Note that parents will also receive the letter
addressed to employees. Note also that some employees are also stockholders. The president recognizes the sensitivity of this policy change and thus will also expect from you a memo
justifying the variations you made in the three letters.
BELOW are the 3 letter
Write one MEMO
Write One MEMO to your supervisor who gave you the job of writing the three letters. You are sending him a memo that tells how you changed what you said according to the needs of the intended audience.
Letter #2 ENG To all of ABC Inc. Employees; Assignment 1 Letter #1 Dear Employees; To our Employees using the child care facility ABC has a long standing history of taking care of its employees. However due to dire economic circumstances, we're forced to make certain amendments to our child care services. We understand the amount of incontinence this is causing parents. Expecting mothers and employees who plan to have children. But we'll ensure that we'll get you the best services for the best prices. Dear Employees who are parents; As you all know ABC Inc. has always taken pride in placing people before profits. We've always backed up our words and promises with concrete action. However, due to extremely tough and uncertain economi times for our industry, followed by the steep rise in child care services, we're compelled to charge parents utilizing the child care services $100 per month per child in return for the services. However, we would like to point out that the average cost of child care in the United States is roughly $10,000 a year, however we've negotiated and hard bargained with the best service providers to get you a competitive rate of $1200 a year ($100 a month). The monthly fee is a nominal cost which is merely meant to subsidies expenses for the firm to prevent austerity measures. Changes to the Child Care Services we're compelled to charge parents utilizing the child care services 100 per month per child in return for the services. However, we would like to point out that the average cost of child care in the United States is roughly $10,000 a year, however we've negotiated and hard bargained with the best service providers to get you a competitive rate of $1200 a year ($100 a month). The monthly fee is a nominal cost which is merely meant to subsidies expenses for the firm to prevent austerity measures. If the firm does not charge for the child care service, in order to stay afloat it would have to temporarily freeze wages for all employees, which would also effect the productivity of the firm as well as a loss in investor confidence which will lead to irreversible stock price damage to the firm and eventually insolvency. This is a scenario which we would definitely like to avoid and would like to seek your help in keeping our firm in business and continue to maintain our promise of putting people first, which is why discontinuing this service isn't an option, since so many of our employees depend on this. These changes are being made taking into account our best interests for all our employees and investors. Regards Management at ABC Inc. Regards Management at ABC Inc.Explanation / Answer
MEMORANDUM
To: All Staff
From: The Supervisor
Date: December 07, 2017
Subject: Changes in all 3 letters.
Dear Sir,
As per your guidelines, I had informed to the parents using the child care center that free service will be discontinue and a very small nominal fee of $100 per month will be charged to them as company is facing financial trouble. But company always believe in keepng the employees first so a service of $ 10,000 per annum has been given in just $100 now. If such steps not taken then the firm may be closed after some time. This particular thing was not informed to the parents that company may be closed. All the other things were same in the letter to all the employees.
A part from all this in Investors letter, I thanked him for their support to our firm through thick and thin ad ensured them that this is the best step we had taken in currrent financial crisis.
Thank you,
The Manager
