Does termination from a previous employer go onto your personal records? If so which ones and how can others access this information?

Yes, it can in may cases. It is illegal for a company to give a bad reference. They should only be able to say when you started and your last day worked. However, if an employer does give a bad reference, what are you going to do about it? Call 911?

An attorney will tell you - You can only sue if you can prove you lost money (and how much) because of their comments.

Also, did you try to collect unemployment because you felt it was an unjust termination? That right there would make it a matter of record.

Also, many applications have you sign a waiver, stating permission for the employer to view medical and personal information.

Are you trying to get a job with the government? They'll get access to every detail of your employment with NO problem.

If you ever want to quit a job, give a notice (2 weeks if possible) and ask for a letter of reference to cover your good name.

Be paranoid! Watch your back!! The employment world can be very evil.

Get a No Cost Background Check Scan at https://bitly.im/aNJ0d

Its a sensible way to start. The site allows you to do a no cost scan simply to find out if any sort of data is in existence. A smaller analysis is done without cost. To get a detailed report its a modest payment.

You may not realize how many good reasons there are to try and find out more about the people around you. After all, whether you're talking about new friends, employees, doctors, caretakers for elderly family members, or even significant others, you, as a citizen, have a right to know whether the people you surround yourself with are who they say they are. This goes double in any situation that involves your children, which not only includes teachers and babysitters, but also scout masters, little league coaches and others. Bottom line, if you want to find out more about someone, you should perform a background check.

Yes, it does go into your personnel record. A prospective employer will ask why you left previous jobs. They may call to check out your references and ask the previous employer a carefully worded question like, "Would you hire this person again". That gives the previous employer a way of warning them off of you without saying anything that could get them sued.

Keri's posting about using friends may work in some areas, but most better paying jobs will want real references. They'll want to call a company and talk to someone in personnel. Giving them a friend's number won't work for this.

It will be in the personnel file that that employer maintains. Most employers will only confirm dates of employment and final job title. A few will include salary data. Most won't state that you were terminated unless crimminal sanctions were taken against you.

BTW, a couple of folks have stated that it is illegal to give a bad reference. Nothing could be further from the truth. There is no such law and anyone who believes that is dreaming. Most won't give a poor reference to avoid litigation but if you did a crap job there's no law that says they have to give you anything but an honest reference -- good, bad or indifferent.

what's the own report??, i'm noticeably certain it really is down on your enterprise organization to the contact your previous corporation and ask for records like this, besides as getting references and so on.. even per chance talk on your previous corporation and enquire as to wether that's commonplace preparation. certain jobs require certain information which contain criminal record heritage checks and so on.. no longer certain about what interest that's although choose documents in that section, besides because the nature of the own report, have worked at quite a number of places. New interest could do it themself fairly frankly via contacting previous corporation like I stated previously. reason they are prolly asking you to do it really is through the indisputable fact that they had study the position to go.

No!! are you paranoid or what?! you will be fine.. it is illegal for someone to give a bad reference.
If unsure, go for a job in a different arena. and use friends for references! it worked for me - i'm in a job i love now, with heaps of perks, despite previous employers trying to screw it up for me.
The world is your oyster! K x

I'm in a very professional job. My references have worked for me cos i'm in a very highly sort-after job; where my skills are indispensable. It all comes down to the job you do - and if you are highly skilled, you will always be fine.
Friends as ref's have worked many times for me, and for others; don't be put off by overly cautious busy-body types. : )
