All employers in the United States have to take and utilize your social security number so they and you pay taxes. Simply to prove you worked there, show your pay stub which will have your social security number on it. If you don't have a copy anymore, go to Human Resources and get copies. By Federal law, they have to give it to you.

Do you have to authorize a verification of employment?

YES; If they are looking fro proof of employment, start date, year to date earnings, current hourly rate or salary, last two years of gross income, current position, over time and a few others. Form must be signed by the person that completes the VOE at your place of employment. The VOE is a written document giving your permission for a third part to verify your employment, position and income.NO; If all they are asking is - do you work there ?After 10 years in the Mortgage Business I learned that for a VOE / Verification of Employment must be authorized by the employee / signed by the employee stating what the VOE is for. Any employer can not give out your employment information without your permission.If they want to call your employer and ask only if you work there then they do not need your permission. They can't ask for dates, pay rates, position, over time or any other questions about your employment.Feel free to ask if you need more information

Do you have to work 12 weeks notice before you leave your job?

In the US, most states operate on an "at-will" employment, where either party can break the employment relationship. Unless there has been a signed and legal contract stating the terms of employment and severing that employment, 12 weeks notice is not considered normal. In general, its common to give 2 weeks notice when leaving an employer, but this is not a legal requirement.


How do you write a letter stating that your employer does not carry health insurance on you?

Can your former employer say you were fired?

Legally no, the worse thing a previous employer can say is "I have no comment on that person"It is a common fallacy that a previous employer cannot divulge that the employee was fired. It is not illegal for the previous employer to state the employee was fired and in most cases the reason for the firing, as long as it is a true statement. What a previous employer cannot do is make such accusations as the employee was fired for theft or other criminal act unless that employee has been charged and found guilty of the offense.Addition:You will have to check the laws in your state, but in general there is no law against an employer giving information about you including that you were fired. In general this is a bad practice since it opens an employer up to a lawsuit for defamation if the employer gave out false information that damaged you, i.e. prevented you from getting a job. Also, some information is considered defamatory per se such as accusing you of a crime. But truth is also always a defense to any defamation lawsuit.Yes.Most employers will not do this to avoid defamation of character suits something that may be interpreted differently by another party or by stating something that may not be true.A vast majority of employers will give dates of employment and position held even with your signed release.

Can an employer tell the unemployment office why you were fired if you were fired for a code of conduct violation and can the employer give them details of the offense in the state of California?

YES. The state has a legal right/requirement to get correct and factual information about your employment history, to determine if you are entitled to benefits , or not. Another answer: Yes. When you file for unemployment, you are stating your position as to why you are eligible. The employer gives their version and the state has to separate the facts and determine who is right.
