Sample Letter Requesting Additional Staff

How to Write a Letter Requesting Additional Staff to your Boss

Dear Sir,

As you know, the next few weeks are crucial in our operations, there is only a small window in which we could complete all our tasks properly and on target. As I've previously advised, our field team are doing the best they can under the current constraints. We are seriously undermanned as of the moment and I would like to request that additional staff be sent over at our North site within the next 24 hours to relieve the current staff on duty. They have been on-call without rest the last five days. I hope you understand we are now on the line in breaching the trust set by the unions. Please let me know if you are going with this option or if you have other solutions in mind.

I am at the field if you need me.

Thank you very much

Benedict
