Respected sir/madam,

This is to inform you that I [mention your name] the [mention your designation at the company] would like to request you to come late to work for a few days. A few days back, I met with an accident and got harmed. 

Due to this, I had to go to the hospital for my bandage on the cuts, as it got cuts due to my 2-wheeler and my leg getting fractured. Looking into my situation, the doctor has advised me to take some rest or to take rest as much as I can.

[Give a reason you for coming late to work in your own words, this is just an example given]. I am a very sincere and a hard worker employee. I have been working in this company for a long time now.

I generally don’t do such actions but this time it was not in my hand. I would like to request you to please grant my permission on coming late to work for a few days so that I can take some rest and get well soon.

Lastly, I hope that you will understand my situation and grant my request for permission. I assure you that I will work harder from now.  Kindly look into this matter and grant my permission.

Thanking you

Yours faithfully,

Subject: Letter of Permission to Come Late to Work

Respected sir/madam,

I (mention the name) am informing you that I will come late to work for the next few days due to personal reasons. 

As you are aware, recently I had a child. Due to this reason, I badly need a nanny. But due to many reasons, I could not arrange any nanny for my baby. In the meanwhile, my maternity leaves are gone.

I can’t leave my baby without proper arrangement. I and my husband am trying to arrange a nanny or any other solution as soon as possible. For the time being, allow me to attain my work, from (mention the attain time) am instead of (mention the official start time) am.

I hope you completely understand my situation and I am asking permission to join my duty 2 hours late for a few days. We have already called some designated agency that provides baby care. But it will take a few more days. Meanwhile, I promise you to deliver all the work from my end. 

It is my heartiest request that you kindly consider my application on a priority basis for the time being and permit my late coming. 

Thanking you

Yours faithfully,
