You work for an international company and need to take some time off work to celebrate a family event. Write a letter to your manager. In your letter ● give details of the family event and why it is important you attend ● say how much time you will need away from the office ● suggest how your work could be covered while you are away
Dear Sir or Madam,
I am writing
this
letter to ask for time off starting from the 10th of April.
I am thrilled that my sister, Sara, is having a baby this
Spring. This
is the first grandchild to be born in our big family and everyone is happy. She needs all the emotional support she can get from me because I am the only brother she has.
She will be needing me for a week, and I have to stay with her before, during and after the delivery of her child. that being said, I need to ask you for a whole week's vacation from the 10th of April till the 17th of the same month, to be able to offer the needed help.
Please, have no worries about my work progress. I will make sure to finish the reports you assigned to me earlier this
month. Also
, I am keeping my Email open during this
whole period in case you feel the urge to contact me.
I am hoping to obtain your approval as this
will mean a favour to me.
Yours faithfully,
John WalkerSubmitted by muhammedalkawaz on
