Because of differences in the way that Web browsers and word processors display
pages, the format of the sample salary history letter displayed below differs
slightly from the download version created in a word processor.
If you copy and paste this sample salary history from your screen instead of
downloading it, the format might not stay intact.
This sample salary history letter is in a full-block style, business-letter
format. But when emailing it, it doesn't necessarily need to be quite as formally
formatted.
For example, you could delete the letterhead, date and recipient's address if
you want, because an email will automatically include informal equivalents. It's
a good idea to keep at least the salutation (Dear...) and complimentary
close (Sincerely...), but you can change them to your preference.
