A Company Recommendation Letter is a crucial document in Austrian business practice, typically issued when an employee is leaving their position or seeking new opportunities while currently employed. This document must comply with Austrian labor law requirements, particularly the principle of benevolent evaluation (Wohlwollensprinzip), while maintaining truthfulness and objectivity. The letter should include the employee's tenure, responsibilities, performance evaluation, and professional qualities, all while adhering to GDPR and Austrian data protection regulations. It serves as an important reference for future employers and can significantly impact an individual's career prospects. In the Austrian context, employers are legally obligated to provide such documentation upon request, making it a fundamental part of the employment relationship.
