What should you do if your employer doesn't provide an Arbeitszeugnis?

✓ Answered · 1 min read · Community · 24 views

If your employer doesn't provide you with an Arbeitszeugnis (employment reference), you should first request it in writing, setting a reasonable deadline for them to provide the document. If the document isn't provided within that timeframe, you might need to seek legal advice or have a lawyer make the request on your behalf.
