Holiday certificate
The employer must hand over a vacation certificate to the employee upon termination of the employment relationship in accordance with Section 6 (2 ) BUrlG .
It is used to inform the next employer about vacation that has already been granted or paid for in the current calendar year , so that he can assess how much vacation is still to be granted to the new employee and to exclude duplicate claims.
If a trial period is agreed with the new employer , the vacation entitlement for the remaining calendar year can also differ.
