Firms do not only deal with what their customers or clients need, they are also concern about their employees’ welfare. After all, it is their employees that strive to please and serve their clients. For instance, in a restaurant, it is the servers, waiters and/or waitresses, and the chef that make sure the patrons are going to eat what they have ordered with gusto or enjoyment.

How to Inform Your Boss of Your Day Off Request

• First is that you have to know your company’s policies and protocols. You can probably check your handbook or manuals, in case you are not that familiar with them yet. Make sure that you follow and comply the necessary papers that come along with your request.
• You should provide adequate notice. Respect your company by informing them about the day when you will not be around, that way they don’t have to have issues regarding the work that you are about to leave behind.
• You should give them your reason. Whether they approve your request or not relies upon the reason that you are going to give them.
• Be nice. You are not simply informing them, what you are really doing is requesting, that’s why you have to ask nicely and with tact.
• Remember to say, “Thank You!” Do not forget to express your gratitude. Take note, that even though you are entitled to a day off, there might be some instances when you have probably already used up your privileges, so be thankful that they are very kind for granting it to you.
