Document background
A Relieving Letter From Previous Employer is a crucial document in professional transitions within England and Wales. It serves multiple purposes: confirming the end of employment, verifying the settlement of dues, and facilitating the employee's transition to new employment opportunities. While not mandatory under UK legislation, it has become standard practice across industries, particularly when employees need to provide proof of clean separation from their previous employer. The document typically includes employment dates, position held, and confirmation that all company properties have been returned and obligations fulfilled.
