A Recommendation Letter For A Coworker is a formal document used in professional settings across Canada to support a colleague's career advancement, job application, or professional development opportunities. This document differs from supervisory recommendations by offering a unique peer-level perspective on the individual's working style, collaboration abilities, and day-to-day professional conduct. The letter should comply with Canadian privacy legislation (PIPEDA) and provincial employment standards, focusing on factual, observable information while avoiding confidential or potentially discriminatory content. It typically includes specific examples of projects, achievements, and interpersonal skills observed during professional interactions, making it a valuable tool for potential employers or institutions to gain a comprehensive understanding of the candidate from a colleague's perspective.
