The front page of your website at http://absolutestrata.com.au/ makes the following claim:
"We pride ourselves on personal attention."
As company director you should at least make a token effort to live up to that.

Detail
If an owner sends you a letter of complaint about the alleged unlawful actions of members of your staff (which will be outlined in future posts) and it is the first time the owner has ever written to you, the following is probably not the correct way of responding. After all it is the owners who are ultimately paying your wages:

I will not be offering any
commentary on your correspondence.
Unless you wish me to charge you
our hourly rate for my time spent do not forward documents to me for review.

When the owner then replies:
"Do I take it from your response that you condone unlawful activity by your staff?"
You should preferably not reply as follows if you "pride yourself on personal attention":
