I need help in drafting a mail for staff, to make them aware that we are going to start PIP programme for employees with less productivity. the mail should create a hype and employees who are non-efficient at their work should realise that company is having a close watch on their performance. Purpose of the mail is to inform the staff regarding this plan which will be strictly implemented for employees showing carelessness towards work.

Dear Priya,
Do you have Policy on Performance Appraisal? If not, first you need to make that policy and if yes, you need to include the clause on PIP.
In the policy you need to include the definition of PIP, its duration, what manager or HOD is supposed to do in case of his/her subordinates who are under PIP, what happens to those who improve the performance and come out of PIP and what happens if the performance is not approved?
As far as issue of letter letter to the employees who need to placed under PIP is concerned, I have two recommendations in this aspect. First one is about placing draft of the policy letter as appendix of the policy. My second recommendation is not to devise this kind of letter at all. In case if the person is needed to be placed under PIP, then you need to make this provision in the Performance Appraisal (PA) form. If the marks scored by the employee are below certain level, then you need to take undertaking from the employee right at the stage of PA review itself. This undertaking should be part of the PA form.
Issue of form is fine, but then it would increase unnecessary clerical work of the HR department. Therefore, while devising policies, HR should strive to keep correspondence as minimum as possible.
Quantification of the Performance: - As written earlier, defining the PIP is important. There are posts in this forum wherein employees have written stories on how they have been victimised through PIP. There are cases of women employees who were placed under PIP sooner they declared their pregnancy! Therefore, issue of letter apart, the larger issue is how to avoid misuse of PIP by the Managers or by some other senior authorities. [i]To avoid this misuse, quantification of performance and further their accurate measure is absolutely important. There is no scope for subjectiveness in the performance appraisal.[i]
Thanks,

Dear Priya,
While accepting the version fully of senior colleague Mr.Dinesh Divekar here, it is advised to frame a policy instead of email which stipulates the requirement and intention of Management and it's monitoring the employee on performance.
And the word is inefficient and not non-efficient, please correct.
