Based on the scenario below, your group will create one internal (memo) document and one public-facing (email expect it to be released to the public through broadcasting) to address the situation and engage the scenario.

Submission Your group will submit two documents in one file. These two documents (memo and email) should be written for different audiences and engage the scenario as appropriate for that audience. They may also have different purposes (one may be informative (internal) and one may be persuasive (external) in order to best save the good name of the brand you are representing.

You will need to explain how seriously the company is taking this issue, what efforts are being made to fix it, how the company will improve, etc. so that people do not stop buying things from Profit, Inc. and put it out of business for treating its workers unfairly. Scenario The Company you work for (Profit, Inc.) has recently come under public scrutiny after multiple employees have alleged that you are monitoring performance and setting unrealistic expectations that force the workers to go hours without the ability to stop long enough to use the restroom without it negatively affecting their performance. The workers are alleging that you know people are making themselves ill and hurting themselves to keep their jobs, and that while Profit, Inc. has seen record profits over the last year, the workers are neither sharing in these rewards, nor are performance expectations being loosened so that employees can use the restroom without falling below the standards necessary to keep their jobs.

Your group works as the communications team and must create an internal document that considers this policy, explains why it is necessary, offers ways to mitigate the bathroom issue, and is written in such a manner that it does not worsen an already volatile situation. In addition, your team will need to create an external (public-facing) document that will be sent to the reporting agency (local/national news) that aired the story as the official comment from Profit, Inc. You will need to explain how seriously the company is taking this issue, what efforts are being made to fix it, how the company will improve, etc. so that people do not buying things from Profit, Inc. and put it out of business for treating its workers unfairly.
