When to use a job reference

In Soviet times, such a document was very common. It was required for every new employment, during transfers, etc. But even now the reference from the place of work has not lost its meaning. Such a document can be used in cases, in labor disputes, etc. as a document.

There are so-called internal and external characteristics from the place of work. Internal is used for transfer, promotion, assignment of a new rank. External characteristics from the place of work is used exclusively for presentation to all other (except the one where the employee works) organizations and authorities. In the first case, we recommend paying more attention to the description of work activity: advanced training, education, incentives, disciplinary sanctions. When a description is drawn up for other organizations, work activity may be described in a brief form.

The job description has its own structure. Such a document is given legal force by: the signature of the head of the organization, who has the right to act on behalf of the organization (sometimes the reference is also signed by the immediate superior), seal, and date of issue. It is advisable to prepare the document on the organization’s letterhead indicating the OGRN, INN, legal address, and telephone numbers.

Contents of characteristics from the place of work

For your convenience, we have systematized the information that may be indicated in the job description. Use them as a template to compile a document:

Company letterhead, format – A 4
In the center is the name of the document - CHARACTERISTIC
In whose name it was issued, date of birth, position, period of work in the organization
Information about the employee's education
Marital status information
Employee’s work history – date of hire, career growth, job responsibilities, work results
Assessment of professional qualities: disciplinary sanctions, incentives, work experience, self-education, study legal framework, self improvement
Assessment of business and personal qualities: punctuality, responsibility, communication skills, relationships in a team, with subordinates, ability to plan work, assessment of work ability, behavior in stressful and conflict situations, relationships with the boss, etc.
The purpose of compiling a reference from the place of work: for presentation to a government agency or others.

The reference letter from the place of employment does not have a statute of limitations, but it is more logical and expedient to present a document that is current as of the date of preparation.

Our sample description from the place of work is not the only possible one, but, as practice has shown, when using it, the result is the most optimal.
