We met this week where you shared some health issues you were dealing with. I following up with a recap of our conversation and have included links to information and resources.

As an employee of Widgets, Inc, you are eligible to seek the services of the Employee Assistance Program (EAP) which helps employees deal with personal issues that might adversely impact their work performance, health and/or well-being. Here is the info…

If there is a need for accommodations in the workplace, you can reach out to HR Dept as they may be able to provide supports on reasonable accommodations in the workplace if that was needed to address your health concerns.

You may also want to reach out to HR Dept to discuss your leave options. Here is the link to information regarding your disability benefits here at Widget, Inc: If you have any questions, you may contact the Benefits & Leave Office at 555-5555.

You shared you were in the process of working with health care providers to support your personal health concerns.

Please keep me in the loop about your next steps and supports you might need. I do hope you feel better.

If, as a manager, you feel compelled to send a letter, I would edit the above to:

So basically, you’d send the same letter. Got it. [/quote]

I am the poster who edited your letter.

Just realized that you may be a teenage manager at a fast-food restaurant or at a combo gas station convenience store.

If that was your take on my edited version, I suspect that you may just have a high school degree & are not college educated.  If accurate, then you need to be much more careful with respect to written communications.
