Abstract:
Employment uses trusted records such as award certificates as a part of hiring procedures. Some countries practices for employment history reference; either a service certificate or systems based on pension records which are based on number of years of employment that are also can be used for pension eligibility. However, there is an increase on the number of issued award certificates which are, in most cases, do not follow an agreed standard, which increases challenges for an authenticated record sharing. Moreover, employment systems are not required to share employment history nor to accommodate record requests educational institutes. Additionally, public employment systems are by design isolated from interaction with private sector. The research suggest that distributed systems would reduce costs for verifying and authenticating records while being flexible on allocating trusted records such as employment history, awarded certificates and resumes.
