    References and job offers Does your employer have to give you a reference?

    If you want to leave your job you’ll probably want a reference. It’s good practice for your employer to give one, but they don’t have to if your contract doesn’t say they have to, except in some regulated industries like financial services.

    If your employer refuses to give you a reference

    If you complained about discriminatory behaviour by your employer, and they won’t give you a reference as a result, you may be able to claim for continued discrimination (victimisation).

    If you need a reference while you are still employed

    If you feel that a prospective employer asking your current employer for a reference would cause a problem, say so at your interview. Your prospective employer may be prepared to wait until you have told your current employer that you are leaving. You have no special protection under the law, but if you are dismissed because your employer is asked to provide a reference, this could amount to unfair dismissal.
