Questions 13–15

Read the workplace memo and choose the best answer.

Internal Memo: Revised Client Response Policy


Following a review of recent customer feedback, the operations department has decided to revise the company’s client response policy. Although most enquiries are currently answered within forty-eight hours, several key accounts have reported delays when requests require input from more than one department.


From next Monday, all client requests marked as urgent must be assigned to a named coordinator within two working hours. The coordinator will be responsible for tracking the request, contacting the relevant departments and ensuring that the client receives a clear update before the end of the business day.


This change is not intended to increase the workload of individual teams. Instead, it should reduce duplicated communication and prevent requests from being passed between departments without ownership. Department heads are asked to brief their teams before the new procedure takes effect.

13. Why is the company changing its client response policy?

14. What must happen within two working hours?

15. What is the intended benefit of the new procedure?
