Business letter

Dear Mr Jones,
I would like to inform you about the decision concerning the relocation of company headquarters : the Management Committee came to a decision that it will be relocating. 

I would like to detail the reasons that caused the decision despite the relevant objections from the staff.
First of all, the top managers considered the staff arguments and formed a special HR team to deal with further relocation problems and/or questions.
Regarding the advantages of relocation, here are the most influential factors from the management's point of view: 

- benefits in the long run: cost reductions, profit boosts;
- special tax incentives from the local authority;
- overseas visitor's cheap accomodations;
- benefits of a new building create a better working environment involving better communication and a friendly atmosphere.

Furthermore, the stress of relocation is planned to be softened by a proposed strategy of independent management consultants. Based on this strategy, the company will provide meal and petrol subsidies and childcare facilities for the staff. Another strong option is flexible working hours.


Finally, although it is a rather serious step for the company and impossible to avoid all the misunderstandings, our goal is modernisation in order to maintain prosperity. We can be assured that the staff is aware of this key factor.


Sincerely yours,
Benjamin Mitchell
InStep Vice President
