If you commit any kind of mistake then it becomes your responsibility to apologize or say sorry for that mistake. By
verbally or in writing you can accept your mistake any apologize for it. But if you say sorry verbally then it’s not worth it.
Expect apologizing verbally if you say sorry in writing then it make good impact hence sorry letters are to be written. While
writing sorry letter make sure that language used by you should be polite because it’s a sorry letter.

Dear, Ms. Simon

On 31st August, 2010 when you had given your promotion party I could not make it to come. I know you are very hurt
because of me as you were expecting me to come in any circumstances. I am extremely sorry for not coming in your
party. I almost got ready and coming for the party but suddenly my mother she got pain in her stomach and I had to rush
to the hospital because there is no one else who can take care of her at that time I made a decision that not to go for a
party. To give excuse is very easy but mine is a truly exception because it was an issue of my mom’s health so it’s my
humble request to you that please accept it.

For a special person like you only sorry letter is not enough therefore I am sending your favorite flowers along with my
best wishes.

Subject: BEHAVIOUR APOLOGY LETTER.

Dear Sir,

I would like to sincerely apologies for my behavior with our clients and subordinates on (10th September 2010). I can only
attribute it to the high level of stress which I am facing due to some serious family problems. The way I behaved with our
clients and my subordinates was very rude and arrogant and I know such behavior of mine can affect the image of our
organization and cause a serious damage to our market reputation.

I exactly know that this is not an excuse for my behavior at work after all any professional person should always keep his
personal and professional life separate. But some times it’s difficult to keep these family problems out of your mind and I
m facing the same situation right now. I assure u that I shall not repeat this miss conduct in the near future.

I genuinely and impatiently look forward to your high-mindedness.

Thanking You,

Sincerely,

Formal Letter
27 Nov, 2009 No Comments

Most official letters are formal in nature. They are formal because lot of major as well as minor decisions need to be
communicated. To ensure that official letters are taken seriously, they need to be formal. Formal official letters can be of
various kinds:

1. Layoff letters
2. Office holiday information letters
3. Employees leave structure letters
4. Promotion letters
5. Demotion letters
6. Termination letters
7. Hiring letters

This is just a small list, there may be many more to add to this list. Formal Letters can either be written to specific
individuals or to a group of employees. If it is written to one individual, it is meant only for her/him. But if it is written to a
group of individuals, then it applies to all of them equally.

DOS AND DON’T’S OF FORMAL LETTERS

• A Formal Letter should always be on the company letterhead

• It should be typed and not hand written
• Before the letter is sent out it must be checked for any grammatical or punctuation errors
• Even though it is a typed letter, the signatures should not be embossed
• The name and address of the addressee should be on the top left corner of the letter
• The name and address should be followed by the date
• After the date mention the subject line
• The letter should start with “Dear” even if the reader is unknown. This brings warmth in the letter for the reader
 • If the reader is a known person then the letter should directly be addressed to her/him
• If however the reader and the gender is not known then it should be addressed to “madam/sir”
• Formal Letters should be short and brief
• The letter should give all possible details about the subject matter that it is intended to talk about
• The tone of the letter should not be authoritative or dictatorial. Based on the letter type, the tone could be either
polite or firm

• Effort should be made to ensure that the letter does not give a feeling of being closed or blocked, i.e. it should be
an open ended letter indicative that options are open

• If it is a letter that is needed to inspire the employees, then it should have adjectives to support the thought
• Alternatively if the letter is to convey a strict decision taken, then appropriate adjectives should be used
• An Informal Letter should ensure that communication is transparent
• The letter should end with “yours sincerely” or “best regards”
• The authorized signatories phone number of email address should form a part of the letter so that the reader has
the option of contacting her/him in case any clarifications are needed
