I lost my Record Of Employment can I get a new one?

Question

I lost my ROE will my previous employer write me a new one so I can get employment insurance?

Answer 1

Yes your employer should write you one. If not you can contact employment security..the records disclosure unit and get your employment history up to the last 10 years.

Answer 2

If you are in Canada, contact your employer to see if they can give you a "certified true copy" of their copy they keep.  (they would put "certified true copy with their signature in the comments area on the photocopy)  Employers have to keep a copy for 7 years in Canada, and send a copy to Bathhurst where EI has a copy as well.  (worst case scenario, they should have a copy there)  Some employers are using web ROE now, which means the ROE is sent electronically to EI and the ROE will be in their system already.
