Release of information
What type of information may we give out to a potential employer seeking for information on a terminated employee in the state of Illinois? I was under the impression that we were only allowed to give out dates of hire and that we were not suppose to discuss reason for termination

Termination
To be safe from libel suits, employers should give out the date of hire, date of last day at work, and their title. Perhaps this is a bit extreme, but it's economically better to avoid any suit, even if it's frivolous or likely to be dismissed at the outset.
