March 26, 2003 Certified Mail Return Receipt RequestedMr. Arnold Smith Director of Human Resources ABC Manufacturing Company 7782 Astoria Blvd Anytown, Anystate 12345 Dr. Mr. Smith: I am writing to report a serious matter of concern to me. I have been employed with ABC Manufacturing for 3 years and I currently serve as marketing representative in the service department, which consists of 17 men and 3 women. My immediate supervisor and his supervisor are both men.Since I joined the company, I have been exposed to a considerable amount of discussion regarding sexual matters during my workday. I have been reluctant to speak out about this matter because I do not want any of the women to experience bad relations with the men in our department. I am sure you can appreciate that is difficult to criticize other workers, especially superiors, for their conversations. In recent weeks, the sexual discussions between some of the men in the department have increased. In addition, the men are using vulgar language and making obscene gestures. I find it difficult to focus on my work in the midst of such discussions. Furthermore, it makes me extremely uncomfortable. I would appreciate it if you would let me know what action you intend to take regarding this matter. I would request that you keep my identity confidential as you investigate the matter. Sincerely, Shirley Employee |
