Address the Appropriate Person

Address the letter to your immediate supervisor. Even if the decision will ultimately be made by someone higher up on the chain of command, launch your request by going through the appropriate channels.

State Your Request

State your request for reduced hours. Be specific by listing the days and hours you want to work each week. If you're flexible, just note the total number of hours you want to work each week. Also, let your supervisor know if you envision this being a permanent schedule or temporary one. If you intend to return to a full-time schedule in the future, indicate when you plan to do so.

State the Benefits

If there are benefits to your employer for reducing your hours, state these before your personal reasons for asking for the request. For example, if your employer is considering layoffs, reducing your hours could save someone's job. If another employee has expressed an interest in job-sharing, this could keep two employees happy, while opening a new position for someone else. If you have often been late for work, reducing your hours to a more manageable schedule might be welcome news to your manager.

Explain Your Reasons

If you're comfortable sharing with your employer, explain the reason for your request. If you’re going back to school, want to have more quality family time or have other personal matters that require the change, tell your boss if you think it will help you make your case for reduced hours. Some bosses might require an explanation to accommodate a part-time schedule.

Explain How the Work Can Be Divided

Describe the aspects of your job you want to retain and what responsibilities would be left to someone else. If you're proposing job-sharing or redistributing the responsibilities of a full-time position, describe how you envision your reduced hours impacting the office and propose alternatives or solutions, if you have any. Let your boss know you will do your best to ensure the transition to fewer hours goes smoothly.
