Dear Working Wise:What information can employers divulge about past employees if they get a call for a reference? I've heard different things about liability that have made me shy away from giving anything more than the most basic information. Signed, Nervous

Dear Working Wise:

Working WiseWorking WiseWorking Wise

Dear Nervous:

There are two separate issues regarding employee references: one concerns the privacy of the employee and the other is fear of litigation.

In Alberta, the Personal Information Protection Act (PIPA) protects privacy in the private sector, including the collection, use and disclosure of personal information.

An organization may collect, use and disclose personal employee information for purposes related to managing or recruiting sta�, including releasing reference information to another employer. The key is to ensure the information is strictly limited to the work relationship.

In one case, a clinic employee disclosed to a prospective employer that the former employee "did a lot of complaining about her co-workers" and "because of her cancer, she couldn't handle the work."

It was determined that the �rst comment did not breach PIPA because it is reasonable performance-related informa-tion. The second comment breached legislation because it was personal employee information.

Employees have successfully sued their former employers for providing bad references. In response, some employers have instructed their sta� to only provide basic information to con�rm employment like, “Bob Smith worked for us from May 2007 until August 2013 as a marketing representative.”

This is likely the safest answer, but it’s not likely to help Bob get that next job.

So, in the spirit of trying not to get sued, I am providing the following tips for general information only — consult your lawyer for legal advice.

Tip 1 — Check if your organization has a job-reference policy. If so, follow the policy. If not, you might want to create one that speci�es what information should be provided, whether you need verbal or written permission from the employee, and who is authorized to provide references.

Tip 2 — Talk to the employee and get their consent before you provide the reference. Be honest with the employee about the kind of reference you will provide. They may decide not to use you if you plan to give a mixed reference.

Tip 3 — Be honest, accurate and speci�c when you give the reference and stick to work-related information only. Try to give speci�c examples to back up your statements. Avoid characterizing the employee’s personality or sharing your opinions on their personal life. Don’t speculate, share suspicions or provide information “o� the record”.

Tip 4 — Don’t divulge personal information that could be used to discriminate against a job applicant such as race, religious beliefs, disability, age or sexual orientation. The Alberta Human Rights Act prohibits discrimination on these grounds. For more information, visit www.albertahumanrights.ab.ca.

For more tips on giving references, check out the How to Give a Reference tip sheet on the Alberta Learning Informa-tion Service (ALIS) website at www.alis.alberta.ca.

For more information about PIPA, visit www.pipa.gov.ab.ca and check out information sheet #5 on Personal Employee Information.
