Document background
The Consent Letter For Reference Check is an essential document in the Indonesian employment landscape, required whenever an organization needs to verify a candidate's employment history, performance, and credentials with previous employers. This document has gained increased importance with the implementation of the Personal Data Protection Law (Law No. 27 of 2022) and stricter privacy requirements. It serves as a formal authorization that protects all parties involved - the prospective employer can legally obtain necessary information, the previous employer can safely provide references, and the candidate's privacy rights are protected. The document is typically used during the final stages of recruitment processes and must be obtained before any reference checks are conducted. It includes specific permissions for data collection, processing, and sharing, while clearly defining the scope and duration of the consent.
