The Letter of Recommendation Restaurant Employee (Arbeitszeugnis) is a crucial document in the German employment landscape, required by law under §109 of the German Industrial Code (Gewerbeordnung). This document is mandatory when an employee leaves their position and must be provided by the employer upon request. It serves multiple purposes: documenting the employee's tenure, responsibilities, and performance in the restaurant industry; providing future employers with standardized, legally-compliant information; and offering the employee a formal reference for their career advancement. The letter must follow specific German legal requirements regarding content, language, and format, using standardized phrases that have developed specific meanings in the industry. It typically includes details about the employee's role, duration of employment, performance evaluation, and behavioral assessment, while maintaining the German principle of being truthful yet benevolent in its assessment.
