Life with COVID-19 is certainly changing what the work place looks life for many of us! Some companies are temporarily closing and others are offering work from home options or advising employees to use their PTO. Unfortunately there are instances where a company may be closing for a time and their employees will have to utilize unemployment benefits. What if your company is closing and you are lucky enough to continue being paid through this time?
We at RPM know how important work relationships are and created a sample letter you can use to thank your employer for continuing to pay you during a closure.
To_______,
I would like to express my gratitude to you for continuing to provide staff salaries during the COVID-19 company closure. I must say that in this uncertain time, this will offer my family and me extra peace of mind and I am sincerely grateful for your generosity.
Please know that I will be using this time to develop professionally so that when we return to work, I can help make _(insert company name)_ stronger than ever.
I am so humbled by this gift and it continues to be my pleasure to be a member of the _(insert company name)_ team.
Sincerely,
(Your Name Here)
