A memorandum (memo for short) is a short piece of writing generally written by the officers
of an organization for sharing information among them. Many organizations use printed memo
forms.
The main purpose of writing a memorandum is to keep record or convey information and
decisions or to make short requests.
Writing a memo takes comparatively less time since it does not contain several details which
a letter has. One can quickly write the message and transmit it to the concerned staff.
The first section of your memo should include four key pieces of information.
TO :(provide the names and titles of everyone who will receive your memo).
FROM : (provide your complete name and title).
DATE : (provide the complete and accurate date—don't forget to include the year).
SUBJECT : (provide a brief, yet specific description of what the memo is about).
A memorandum letter reminding all the employees to follow the safety rules properly.
A number of workers are not wearing their safety boots while working in the clean
room. Please wear these boots AT ALL TIMES when you are working in the clean-room
area.
We issued the boots last Baisakh after a series of accidents in which workers slipped
on the clean-room floor. A few months ago an employee struck his head on the floor
and had to have 12 stitches in his scalp.
For your own protection, make it a habit to put on the boots before you enter the
clean room. Let us make our factory a safe place to work in.
