Therefore, this type of Records are required for certain civil and legal procedures, such as the application for a mortgage or a credit card, the completion of immigration procedures, the rental of a property, the purchase on credit for any furniture or appliance, opening a bank account.

That is, for any diligence where it is necessary to leave in writing proof that we work and we are productive people that we will have in the future how to respond for our responsibilities.

In this sense, a record of work must have the following data, which in turn should be ordered as follows:

• Company letterhead sheet
• City and date (right-aligned)
• Title of Communication in sustained and bold capital letters (Constance of Work, Labour Certification, employee Letter, depending on the name you receive in each country or city)
• Body of communication: this section usually shows the worker’s position, as well as his date of entry, which gives an account of his seniority, as many institutions request it to check the stability of the worker, not providing his complacency to who are less than six months old. Likewise, in the Constancy of Work must appear the net salary accrued by the worker, as well as the method of payment (monthly, biweekly, weekly or daily).
• Signature, where the name, position and identification number of the person issuing the record is placed, because even if the company does, it needs someone to represent it, so it is almost always signed by the Director of Personnel, and sometimes by the owner or president of the Company.
• However, the form of writing of the body of Constancia varies depending on the type of employment relationship between the employee and his employer. In this way there may be employee Constances issued for contracted personnel, as well as for employees working as professional or free-lance fees or employees on fixed salary, who are part of the company’s payroll.

On this occasion we will give examples of each of the cases, so that the reader can have a clear picture of the different types of Constancies of Work that may exist, in case he needs to write any or ask his employer to issue this type of communication. Below are examples of three types of employee Constancy:

Proof of Work for Contracted Personnel

This communication contains the same data of all Constancy of Work or Labour Charter, it differs only by the wording of its body, in which it is specified that the worker is in the capacity of contracted, that is, that his employment stability depends on the continuous contract renewals. An example of this type of certification would be the following:

(Company letterhead)

Metropolis, Kanzas, August 28, 1986

Employee Constancy for Free-Lance Staff

We also find this type of certification, which includes exactly the same data as the previous example, varying only in the body of Constancy, in which it is also left in writing that the relationship with the employee is free-lance or by personal fees, i.e. the worker does not accrue social benefits or are included in the company’s payroll, so he does not receive a minimum wage, but earns according to what he produces for the company or for the work done.

An example of this type of work letter might be the following:

(Company letterhead)
