A contractor’s working address exists but public directory visibility needs a separate business decision.

The useful bits

  • Directory audience and purpose
  • Contractor’s approved role description
  • The response should approve or decline a defined entry and assign its review owner.

Before you write

Use this example when a contractor’s working address exists but public directory visibility needs a separate business decision. Gather the details below so the recipient can act without asking you to reconstruct the situation.

  • Directory audience and purpose
  • Contractor’s approved role description
  • Sponsor responsible for review

An email you can adapt

The subject “Directory visibility for [contractor]” identifies the request. Replace each bracketed field with a checked detail and remove any sentence that does not describe your situation.

EXAMPLE / ADAPT TO YOUR SITUATION
Subject: Directory visibility for [contractor]

Hi [name],
Please confirm whether [contractor] should appear in [directory] for the duration of [project]. The proposed entry would show [professional fields] and the approved project address. We will not include personal contact details. If publication is appropriate, please identify the business sponsor and the date on which the entry should be reviewed. Account access and directory visibility will remain separate decisions.
Best, [sender]

Check the boundary

A working account does not automatically authorize publication in an external or company-wide directory.

What a useful reply should settle

The response should approve or decline a defined entry and assign its review owner.

At the agreed review point, check whether the directory entry still serves an active business purpose.
