The Current Employer Reference Letter is a crucial document in the Irish employment landscape, used when an employee requires formal verification of their current employment status and professional standing. This document is commonly requested for job applications, visa processes, rental agreements, or financial applications. Under Irish law, employers must ensure compliance with the Data Protection Act 2018 and GDPR when preparing such references, and must maintain a duty of care to provide accurate information. The letter typically includes current employment details, role responsibilities, and professional conduct assessment, while optional elements such as salary information require explicit employee consent. The reference letter must balance the need for informative content with legal obligations regarding privacy and fair representation.
