Brief introduction
Writing means communicating a clear message to the right reader. Use short, authentic workplace texts.
Learning objectives and skills
Write understandable messages, structure a simple report and adapt language to the purpose and reader.
Workplace examples
Write an incident report, a work log or a message for the next shift.
Teaching approaches
Show a model text. Write together before learners try independently. Give specific feedback on content and clarity.
Why it matters at work
Written documentation, incident reports and customer contact are increasingly important – and increasingly digital.

Common misconceptions
- “Writing is about spelling.” Content, structure and reader are just as important.
- “Short messages need no writing skill.” Being brief and precise is often hardest.
How the skill can be developed
Show model texts, write together before learners write alone, and give feedback on clarity.
