10. Your company has recently introduced a new uniform for the staff. But you have learned that the staff members are not happy about it.

Write a letter to your manager about it. In your letter,

• explain why you think the staffs are not happy with the new uniform

• what you want the new uniform to be like

• and give some suggestions to handle the situation

  Dear Sir,

  I am a Senior Executive at our company, and I am writing this letter to say a few words about the new uniform code of our company which, I do not think, is exactly appreciated by many of our company staff.

  The problem is that the majority of the staff of our company think that a new uniform code is just a waste of time and money because it does not really help increase our productivity in any way. Besides, they are also saying in private that they are not willing to accept this new uniform code because they think that the colours of the dresses are too “generic” and do not quite go along with the prestige and reputation of our company.

  So, now that we know why the staffs are not ready to approve this new uniform code, the management can actually suggest a different colour code (could be more than just one colour as long as they are “unique”). Not only that but also the company can make an offer to pay for the making charges of the uniforms to make this new uniform proposal even more appealing to them.

  I hope you will consider my opinion and suggestions.

  Yours faithfully,

  Jim McEnroe
