Effective Letter Writing for HR & IR

HR/IR letters are crucial communication tools between employers and employees. These letters address a wide range of employment-related issues that must be clear and legally compliant. Their primary purpose is to meet the letter's objectives while minimising or resolving potential liabilities, ensuring clarity, consistency, and professionalism in all written correspondence related to employment matters.

The objective of this programme is to facilitate efficient industrial relations by offering standardised, legally compliant, and empathetically designed letters that cover many areas of the employment lifecycle, such as recruitment, performance evaluation, disciplinary actions, and employee recognition which will contribute to a more harmonious and effective workplace, supporting both the organisation's goals and the well-being of its employees.
