References & documents

Employment references and HR documents in minutes — legally sound and benevolent.

Writing a good employment reference costs time and tact: it has to be true and benevolent, complete, and written in the customary Swiss reference language. For many managers this is an unloved task that gets put off.

HREasy takes it off your hands. The agent pulls the details from the personnel file, drafts a complete, legally sound reference in the correct form and puts it to you for review. You adjust what you want and send it — all in a few minutes instead of half an afternoon.

Sound familiar?

  • A reference needs to go out, but nobody knows how to word it correctly.
  • The necessary data is spread across several folders.
  • Uncertainty as to whether the wording is legally delicate.
  • The finished document still has to be put into the right layout.

In detail

Legally sound and fair at the same time

An employment reference has to correspond to the truth and at the same time must not unnecessarily hinder the employee’s further career. This balance is demanding, particularly when parting ways.

HREasy knows the established formulations and helps you stay factual and fair. This avoids both opaque codes and statements that are legally open to challenge.

From data record to finished document

Role, duration, duties and performance are stored in the personnel file. From these, a first draft is created in seconds that you only need to review.

Recurring documents such as salary or employment confirmations are produced just as effortlessly, at any time and in consistent quality.
