(office english) notice of unsatisfactory performance

(上班族英文) 表现不佳的通知

dear mr. smith:

亲爱的史密斯先生你好：

this is a follow-up letter in regards to the human resources meeting held yesterday in which management discussed your poor workplace performance as of late. as a reminder, here are some of the points that were established and what is expected of you from now on.

这封信件為昨日召开的人力资源部会议的后续信，会议中管理阶层讨论了你最近在职场上的不良表现。作為提醒，我们订立了以下数项，这是对你从今以后表现的期许。

the foremost issue is in regards to punctuality. several co-workers have complained that you continually arrive late to work and that they have felt the need to “cover” some of your morning responsibilities. just last week you missed an important meeting with a client. this is inexcusable and any lateness within your probationary period will be automatic grounds for dismissal.

最至关紧要的是準时方面的问题。数名同事抱怨了你时常迟到，而他们觉得必须替你处理部分早上的职责。就在上週，你错过了一场跟客户的重要会议。这没有任何藉口，而察看期中若再有任何迟到的问题，就得请你走路。

most egregious of the complaints, however, relates to your shirking of duties and reliance on both your secretary and underlings to handle duties that are specifically yours to carry out. although we all work together, it is unfair of you to pass your duties on to them, and if we do not see that you can handle your workload, we must find someone who can to fill your position.

然而抱怨中最為严重的一项，是与你避开工作有关，你仰赖秘书及下属处理理应由你处理的事务。儘管我们都是同事，但你将自己的工作推给他们实在说不过去，而且如果你无法处理自己的工作量，我们就得找个人来补你的位置。

please take this one-month probationary period to illustrate your commitment to the company and improving your performance.

请运用这為期一个月的察看期来展现你对公司的奉献，并改进你的表现。

sincerely,

诚挚地

helen wu, vp
