What is the difference between a duvet day anda Ree Sree vay Pore eA cg Peer The principal aim of this proposal is to evaluate the effect sick days have (on our company and to recommend the introduction of ‘duvet days’ to help the situation. According to a recent report the average UK worker takes 9.1 sick days a year, and these unscheduled breaks are costing the UK economy around £29 billion per annum. Furthermore, it shows that in around 12% of these cases the illnesses aren't genuine. In an ever-changing working environment, people are spending longer at work. This. is leading to cases of stress which in turn are causing our staff to take more and more sick days. Ina number of companies, ‘duvet days’ have been introduced to help combat this problem. In brief, a duvet day is an officially endorsed day when a worker can choose not to come into work for reasons which they do not need to specify. Unlike holiday entitlement, employees do not have to prearrange these days. We firmly believe that by allocating our employees a number of duvet days each ‘year, we will allow them to manage their ‘own time more effectively and avoid the complications caused by overworking. They will still be expected to meet their deadlines on time but duvet days will offer them more freedom in achieving this. We strongly recommend that the company conduct a trial run of offering duvet days. We suggest that the effects of this on the company should be monitored and if these are shown to be beneficial, duvet days should be made part of company policy soon. 2 SLEEP ON IT Writing tip: a proposal Proposals are similar to reports in that both writing genres ‘aim to give information about a situation.

Yet with the average bed costing around £500, most people are happy to spend more on their home entertainment system than they are on their bed. I decided to rake a look at what you could get if you decided to pay bit more. For example, with around £440,000 you could get yourselfa Jado Stee! Gold Bed. This bed comes with all the loxury you would expect at such a price tag, It is coated in gold and has Swarovski crystals ‘embedded into the headboard. But what really makes thisa teenage dream bed are the ‘extras'that are included: PlayStation games console, a BOSE sound system, Blu-ray player and plasma TV screen that folds away when you finally decide to-get some slep. Oh, did Iorget to mention thatthe TV is also coated in gold?
