It depends on what she or he said. When a Manager or Supervisor calls your former employee for a reference, they are suppose to ask your former employee will you hire this person again, your former employee only suppose to say Yes or No.

Can an employer lie about the reason an employee was fired to a prospective employer?
Here in the States, potential employers are not allowed to ask how the former employment was terminated. They can only seek character references. No law prohibits employers from giving thorough info on former employees to anyone who inquires. Former employees have zero expectation of privacy regarding their work record, attendance, attitude, skill, or disciplines. EMployers who express no falsehoods about a former employee have zero liability for defamation.

Do you have the right to know what a previous employer tells a prospective employer?
In Canada you have the right to go to the former employer and ask to see your employee file and they have to accommodate the ex employee. However, what is in your file and what the former employer says behind your back are two different things. I always get a Letter of Recommendation from former employers because it covers your back. If they say anything else they would look like a complete fool because you have it in writing with your Letter of Recommendation. Employers don't have to give you a Letter of Recommendation, but give it a go. Every bit helps.
Why must employers keep employee records for unemployment benefit claims?

If he were discharged for cause, the employer must prove his case or it goes against his record with the state and the employee qualifies for his benefits.
What can you say about a former employee?

Can former employers answer questions about employee dismissal?
It depends on who is asking and what place you are in. In Canada the appropriate government agencies must be answered fully and honestly. If you are calling asking if an employee was fired, layed off or quit we are now only allowed to confirm employment not the reason for departure.
