Embassies and consulates ask for proof of employment in English for travel or family visas. So do banks, schools and real estate agencies outside Japan. The bilingual form works for both sides: the Japanese company understands what it is signing and the person who receives it reads English.
Issuing this certificate to someone who still works at the company is normal practice, and companies usually agree. Bringing the finished document makes it easier: the manager only checks and stamps it.
This form does not include salary. When the recipient asks for income, the right document is the 源泉徴収票 or the 課税証明書, issued by your company and by city hall.
