The General Manager,
Fit Garment Industries,
Multan Road Lahore.

Dear Sir,

Subject: Report on the strike of the workers in the factory.
Following your instructions, I have probed into the matter regarding the strike of all the workers in
the factory. Here are my findings.

On Monday morning, in the production unit 2, two workers started a fight on a money matter.
Ahmad had lent some money to Kareem, who made several promises but did not return a single penny.

On Monday morning Ahmad demanded an immediate return of his amount but instead of an apologetic
behaviour Kareem abused Ahmad. Hot remarks were exchanged. Kareem picked up a hammer and hit it
hard on Ahmad's head. It started bleeding.

He was rushed to the hospital by the workers. Members of the labour union reached and all the
workers took out a procession. The President of the union gave a call for strike. They raised slogans against
the culprit. While addressing the mob, union leaders demanded a prompt termination of the culprit. They
wanted to continue the strike till the acceptance of their demand.

However, on the assurance of the Production Manager, they agreed to call off their strike.
Everything was done amicably.

Sir,
You have asked for my suggestions, so I recommend Mr. Kareem's termination. I do feel that a
case of fraud and assault should be registered in the police station. Mr. Ahmad should be treated at the
expenses of the company and should be granted paid leave for one month.
Yours truly,
