Document background
The Previous Employment Certificate is a mandatory document that Indonesian employers must provide to employees upon the termination of their employment relationship, as required by Law No. 13 of 2003 on Manpower. This certificate serves multiple purposes, including facilitating future employment opportunities, supporting visa applications, and providing official documentation of work experience. It typically includes essential information such as employment duration, positions held, responsibilities, and conduct during employment. The document must be issued on company letterhead, signed by authorized representatives, and may be required to be certified by relevant authorities depending on its intended use. The certificate plays a crucial role in Indonesia's employment ecosystem, providing standardized verification of employment history while complying with local labor regulations.
