Certificate of service maker

Make the certificate of service every employee is entitled to when they leave: dates, job, pay and, if they ask, the reason for leaving. Saved as a PDF on your device. Free.

The rules in short

• The BCEA (s42) lists what it must show: the employer, the employee, any bargaining council or sectoral determination, the start and end dates, the job and the pay when employment ended.
• The reason for leaving goes on only if the employee asks.
• A certificate of service is not a reference.
