— Taking their nod from U.S. law and practices, many Canadian employers refuse to provide references, good or bad, beyond confirming dates of employment and positions. Their reason; fear of being sued. But that concern is illusory. The courts protect employers from lawsuits related to providing negative damaging references by providing references (and job evaluations that damage employees' prospects) with "qualified privilege." The only time an employer can be successfully sued for libel based on a reference is if the employee can prove it was provided maliciously, and in bad faith i.e. the employer did not believe it itself. That is an almost impossible task because the courts believe it to be in the public interest for employers to be able to honestly opine about an employee to potential new employers. And they are right. There are too few motivational tools in the employer's armoury. If an employee knows their behaviour — good and bad — will follow them for the remainder of their career, they have a tendency to ensure it reflects positively upon them. And, good employees deserve to have prospective employers hear that about them. (Excerpt from the article below)
