MODEL LETTERS, AGREEMENTS AND CHECKLISTS

“Action is the antidote to despair.”

-Joan Baez, Folk Singer

It is our hope that, with these Letters, Agreements and Checklists, you will be more capable, more confident, more empowered and more effective in Negotiating and Navigating for Yourself in all phases of Employment: entering the job, while on the job, or in leaving the job.

Of course, all model letters are just that – models – and must be adapted to your own particular facts and circumstances. These show you the basics of what to say, and how to say it, offering you language and phrases intended to produce positive results. We suggest they be used in conjunction with the advice and counsel of an experienced attorney licensed to practice law in your locality.

These models are for your individual use only. They are all copyrighted. They are not to be shared, republished, or transferred to anyone else, for any reason.

New Job 4	Memo to HR to Clarify “Benefits and Burdens” An Action Memo for your use in gathering critical information about the benefits, restrictions, policies and rules you will benefit from, and be subject to many of the benefits and conditions you will encounter in a new job.

New Job 5	Model Response to Offer Letter Offer Letters (sometimes called “Welcome Aboard” letters) seem short, simple and to the point. However, most Offer Letters are quite the opposite: they are often deceptively written, in that they contain (a) employment “risks” that are carefully hidden, and (b) what we call “wiggle room” that can be used to deny you employment “rewards” that you are counting on. This Model Memo shows you how to address and correct the most common problems in Offer Letters. Purchase it separately, or as part of our “Ultimate New Job Package.” See below.	$44.95 (To Buy, See Below)

Job Issues 2	Memo Report/Complaint of Discrimination, Harassment, Hostility to HR or Legal It is firmly established in the law – even confirmed by the United States Supreme Court – that an employer cannot be held responsible for discrimination, harassment or hostility if the affected employee did not report what happened . . . and there is a record of that report. For this reason it’s critical that an employee complaint be put into writing, so that the fact that it was transmitted, and exactly what was reported, can be confirmed. This Model Memo can help you do just that.	$42.95 (To Buy, See Below)
Job Issues 3	Memo Confirming Meeting with HR/Legal after Your Reporting Discrimination For those who report discrimination, harassment or hostility to their employer’s HR or Legal Team, it is important to prepare and maintain a written “history” of developments regarding your complaint.

Job Issues 5	Response to Request You Sign a Non-Compete Agreement You have just been offered a great job . . . but it requires that you sign a “non-compete agreement.” You find yourself in a quandary: the non-compete seems to say that, if you leave this job for any reason, you can’t work in your industry for a full year.

Job Issues 7	Model Equity & Benefit “Inventory” Over the years we have found that many clients fail to keep careful record of valuable equity and benefits, and related conditions and dates.

Here’s our form to help you prevent that, for you and your family’s protection.	$34.95 (To Buy, See Below)
Job Issues 8	Memo Objecting to Retaliation on the Job Sadly, more and more employees who report financial wrongdoing, or who object to harassment or discrimination, or who participate in investigations of illegality, suffer retaliation for doing so.

Job Issues 9	Memo Requesting Monies Not Yet Paid by Present Employer What do you do if your employer doesn’t pay you what you are owed, due to oversight, differences in calculation, or some other reason?

Job Issues 11	Requesting Review of HR File You may have a legal right to review (and copy) your HR file. (A state-by-state review of the law can be found in our Newsletter/Q&A Library.)

Job Issues 12	Defending Yourself if Accused of Hostility, Harassment or Discrimination Being accused at work of being hostile, harassing or discriminatory can happen to anyone, with devastating results for your job, career and reputation. For this reason it is very important that you respond in a positive and proactive way to any such allegation.

Job Issues 14	Filing Complaint of FMLA Violation/Retaliation to Human Resources The Family and Medical Leave Act (“FMLA”) gives employees the valuable legal right to take unpaid time off from work to take care of themselves or their loved ones; It also guarantees they will be returned to their jobs, or equivalent ones, once they return. This model letter is a model Complaint for violation of FMLA rights – either denial of leave, interference with legal rights, failure to return to prior position, or retaliation for invoking FMLA’s protections.	$39.95 (To Buy, See Below)
Job Issues 15	Two Letters Requesting Agreement That Employee Will Have Rights to Creation When employees produce written or other “creations” related to their work, the law provides that the “creation” is the property of the employer. However, employers and employees are free to agree that the employee may own, or share, the “authorship” and “ownership” rights. These two Model Letters show you how to request ownership or sharing of such rights, and contain simple letter-agreements to use for that purpose.	$39.95 (To Buy, See Below)
Job Issues 16	Employee’s Second Response to Receiving Performance Improvement Plan Sometimes, an employee’s first efforts to “Push Back” at a Performance Improvement Plan do not accomplish the goal of having it removed or changed. For these people, we offer this second “PIP” Model Letter, intended to raise the issues to a higher level of authority at the employer. Most commonly this is ether the CEO or the Board Members, who have greater authority – and responsibility – for matters of misrepresentation and fraud, which false PIP’s generally are.	$39.95 (To Buy, See Below)

Job Issues 19	Letter From Expatriate/Relocatee in Untenable Circumstances To CEO and Board of Directors As an expatriate or “relocatee,” you may find yourself and your family stranded and/or abandoned in a different country or region, despite your employers’ repeated assurances that no such thing could possibly ever happen. This Model Letter is designed to address that very urgent situation, and its significant needs.	$49.95 (To Buy, See Below)
Job Issues 20	Pre-Emptive Anti-Retaliation Letter (“PEARL”) to Board Chair The truly best way to avoid becoming the victim of retaliation at work is to raise the issue pre-emptively, that is, (a) before you file a complaint or take any other action that might lead to retaliation, (b) to the highest level of authority. It says to the victimizers “You are being watched.” This model letter shows you how.	$39.95 (To Buy, See Below)
Job Issues 21	Model Forms and Package to File for I.R.S. Informant Award In recent years the U.S. federal government has run up huge deficits. To address growing problem, some people think the U.S. government should cut spending. Other people think the U.S. government should increase taxes. But nearly everyone thinks the billions of dollars not collected from those who cheat on their taxes should be collected. A new program called the I.R.S. Informant Program has been established to award Informants by paying them 15% to 30% of the tax collected as a result of information provided. In April, 2011, one accountant from Philadelphia was awarded $4.5 million for reporting his employer. Here’s a guide to doing the same with your employer if you wish.	$59.95 (To Buy, See Below)
Job Issues 22	Addressing a Conflict-Of-Interest at Work Every now and then a conflict-of-interest (real or perceived) arises at work.

Or a mother may sell supplies to the company her son runs. Here’s the best way to address a conflict-of-interest at work.	$39.95 (To Buy, See Below)

Resign 4	To HR Before Exit Interview Employees who are asked to attend an Exit Interview should be very careful about both (a) what they say, and (b) what they sign.

Purchase it separately, or as part of our “Ultimate Severance Package.” See below.	$57.95 (To Buy, See Below)
Severance 3	Requesting “Departure Statement”/Reference Letter After termination comes the new job search. Each of your interviewers may ask you the reason for your departure.

Being able to provide such a letter to potential employers will give you both an advantage, and additional confidence, as well. Though most employers have policies against providing reference letters, in the severance process you can negotiate for one. Use this memo to do just that.

Post-Employ 2	Request for Reference Letter with Three Model Reference Letters To get an interview, or at an interview, it’s a great advantage to have positive, powerful reference letters.

Post-Employ 5	Cease and Desist Use of Name and Photo Former employer still using your name, picture, biography or other information on their website, marketing brochure or license applications? If so, it’s important that you put a halt to that practice as soon as possible. Otherwise you may be involved in their disputes, and could have problems with future employers.

Coming Soon!	$49.95 (To Buy, See Below)
Sample Agreement 4	Executive Employment It’s not common for an executive to need to supply his or her own employment agreement; the employer almost always has its own attorneys provide an initial draft. Still, (a) executives do sometimes need to propose their own agreements. Additionally, executives sometimes ask for a “sample” employment to either (b) compare with the draft they have received, or (c) review for alternative ideas and language. This Sample Executive Employment Agreement can be used for all those purposes.	$49.95 (To Buy, See Below)
Sample Agreement 5	Mutual Non-Disclosure Agreement (“NDA”) When sharing a unique opportunity, great idea, or business proposal with someone else, what’s to stop them from “stealing” it by using it themselves, or divulging it to someone else who might use it without you? Preventing such risks when seeking business affiliates is the purpose of having both sides sign an “NDA” before the opportunity, idea or proposal is shared. This is a good, reasonable and fair agreement.	$39.95 (To Buy, See Below)
Sample Agreement 6	Entrepreneur’s Confidentiality Agreement If you plan to start a business, and to do so you submit information, ideas or data to another person or company to evaluate, you want to protect your information from their use or their giving to others.
