An interim certificate is already issued by the employer during the current employment relationship. It provides information on the course of the employment relationship to date. In principle, an interim certificate is only issued if the employee has a legitimate interest in receiving it. This is the case, for example, if the employer is planning to dismiss the employee, if the employee’s duties change, or if there is a change of superior. Anyone who stays away from the company for a longer period of time, such as maternity leave or pregnancy, can also demand an interim report.
However, it is now recognised that an employee is also entitled to the issue of an interim certificate if he or she is facing career changes. This means that he or she can request the interim certificate for an application, for example.
The employer’s social co-responsibility towards third parties, e.g. possible future employers, is important. They rely on an interim report card. This is because the final or „normal“ report is usually only given when you are hired. In terms of content, the later job reference may not deviate completely from the content and assessment of the original interim report.
However, employees who demand a certificate in the course of an ongoing employment relationship should always be aware of the fact that this can be seen as mistrust on the part of the employer. A further disadvantage may be that the employer may rely on interim certificates for parts of the employment relationship when issuing the final certificate. As a result, this can lead to a fragmentation of the assessment, which is usually very unfortunate in the recruitment process.
