The letter of the law

Article Abstract:

UK employers will no longer be able to refuse to provide a letter of reference for a previous employee, if the grounds for ending the employer/employee relationship arose from a discrimination case, according to a ruling by the European Court. Former employers will be liable to face court proceedings from employees if the failure to provide a letter of reference results in them being unable to find further employment. Refusing to provide a reference letter could be regarded as a retaliatory action and therefore against the code of practise of European employment legislation.
