Employment reference request — Arbeitszeugnis (Germany)
Why it matches: You are leaving your job in Germany and want a full reference that covers your performance.
Germany · in German
A letter asking a German employer for a full employment reference (qualifiziertes Arbeitszeugnis) on leaving, or an interim reference (Zwischenzeugnis) while still employed — expressly covering performance and conduct, because without that request the employer owes only a basic reference stating the type and length of the work (§ 109 of the German Trade Regulation Act, GewO). It gives the job, the period of employment, the reason and a date by which the reference should be posted. No form is prescribed for the request. In German.
Application to defer or pay an administrative fine in instalments (Austria)
Why it matches: You have lost your job or had unexpected costs and need more time to pay a fine.
Austria · in German
An application to the district authority, the city's Magistrat or the Land police directorate to pay a fine from an Austrian penalty order or penalty decision later or in instalments (§ 54b Abs 3 of the Austrian Administrative Penal Act, VStG): with the file number, the amount, your payment proposal, your financial circumstances and why the difficulty is temporary. If paying at once is unreasonable for economic reasons, the authority must grant a suitable deferral or instalments. In German, ready to print, sign and send with proof of income and outgoings.
Request for an employment reference (Austria)
Why it matches: You are leaving your job in Austria and the employer has not given you a written reference.
Austria · in German
A letter asking the employer in Austria for a written reference (Dienstzeugnis) under § 1163 ABGB and § 39 AngG — a final reference when the employment ends, or an interim one during it, which is issued at the employee's cost. Austrian law owes only the simple reference stating the length and kind of the work, and it may contain nothing that makes finding a new job harder; the letter also asks politely for a favourable description of duties and achievements. In German, to print and sign.
