What is a newsletter? As a rule, people remember this word when they are overcome by an illness and they need to be released from work. Then they go to the doctor and receive a document, temporarily relieving them of their duties. But if you approach the issue a little more closely, you will find other options for the interpretation of this term.
Announcement
The dictionary gives several meanings of the word "newsletter".
First option. An informational message about any events of importance to public life. For example, about the release of a new regulatory act, about high-profile crimes or festive events. As a rule, this happens at the official level, sometimes once, sometimes with a certain frequency.
Example: “When posting newsletters, in one way or another, and giving them a certain volume (smaller or larger), the media aim to rank them by importance, importance. Thus, they present to their audience an informational “photograph” of the day, which depends on the editorial policy developed by the management. ”
Type of publication
This is another version of the word under study, according to which the newsletter is a publication that, like the above messages, can be single-shot, or can be published after certain periods - both on a long-term and short-term basis. It contains concise information that tells about scientific research, the work of various institutions and public organizations.
Example: “There is such a thing as a“ newsletter ”, which means a print or electronic publication intended for a specific target audience. It should be noted that the use of this term is not allowed by the international standard. Nevertheless, it is widely used in business practice. ”
Disability Certificate
This is the official name of the document that will be discussed. In an informal setting, it is also called a “sick leave”, and sometimes a “newsletter”. This paper confirms that the citizen temporarily lost the ability to work. It is issued by a medical institution in cases when:
- temporary disability has occurred;
- a woman goes on maternity leave;
- care for patients who are one of the family members is needed.
When treatment takes place on an outpatient basis (that is, without being admitted to a hospital), as well as in case of poisoning, in a number of other situations, the bulletin is issued by the attending physician individually. If the period of incapacity for work does not exceed 15 calendar days. If this period is exceeded, the sick leave is issued by a medical commission.
Example: “In 2015, an experiment was launched in the Russian social insurance system, involving the transition to electronic bulletins. At the same time, pilot projects were initiated only in some regions of the country. In connection with their successful implementation, from July 1, 2017, the electronic newsletter was assigned the status of a legal document, which is equivalent to a “paper” sick leave. ”
Ballot
This is another meaning that dictionaries point to. The ballot is dealt with by people who have reached the age that allows them to vote. For this, there is a document indicating the names of the candidates. From which you need to make a choice by noting a particular column in a certain way.
It is the main one in elections or referenda, has an approved form and certifies the vote of the voter. In some cases, it is called a "ballot paper." At the end of the election process, the commission gives an opinion on which of the candidates is preferred.
Example: “Analysts noted that a particular arrangement of items on the ballot affects the likelihood of the choice being made by voters. For example, if the name of the candidate is in the first place, there is a chance that he will gain a few additional percent of the vote. ”
