Employment reference with point 2.9 in Germany
I got a Arbeitszeugnis (Employment of reference) from my previous Employer in Germany. In Germany, it is illegal to write something negative to employees. However, when you look at that, you perceive it very positive in the first impression. But there is a formula behind it which reveals the truth. That is what companies are applying in Germany. And according to my analyze , I got 2.9. that is average point that makes me not happy as my opinion was different.
In this situations I have two questions;
Do they have to renew it in a way that corresponds to higher point? Or does it depend on them to make improvement? I want to know legal side.
Second question is, as this is german letter, Do I have a right to translate it to English when I apply to English speaking jobs in other countries ? And is it applying to also outside of Germany to use this formulas or is it something specific in Germany ?
thanks
