First, make sure that your grievance is real. Is your workload much greater than what was spelled out, either in writing or verbally, when you began? Did you have to take on someone else’s work in addition to your own because that person was unexpectedly out for a lengthy time?
It will be important to write your letter respectfully and not come across as just a complainer. If the employer is generally a good employer, express gratitude for having the job, and any benefits you especially appreciate from the job, such as flexibility in hours, good benefits, congenial atmosphere, etc.
One problem that many employers face today is that employees (often, certainly not always) have a more selfish attitude rather than a team spirit attitude. In the small business that my husband runs, we have been fortunate to have many excellent and long-term employees, but we also increasingly see that younger people don’t take their responsibilities as seriously, and also lack respect for the boss as a boss who pays them regularly.
In general, when writing any kind of complaint letter, start off with anything positive that you can think of BEFORE getting to the complaint. Show the employer that you value the job (assuming you do) and want to give them the best performance possible, but that the unexpected additional duties, or the growing workload, works against your doing your best work for the company.
The tone of the letter should be respectful, sincere, and firm without being overly demanding.
Good luck!
