Hi Premsahu, The benefit for you is in the higher market value after you complete the training. If you’re unwilling to continue for 2 yrs, its better to pay the bond amount. Sree

Kanika, It is better to decide the terms and conditions (period of bond, amount payable, factors to be considered for waiver) and get the actual bond drafted by a legal consultant. Sree

Dear All

We find lot of posts on Bond Breaking.Bonds are legal and enforceable .

It is not as easy as one thinks of breaking bond .There are serious consequences which will happen without the Employees knowledge.

Having done certain research on the case law of Bond Breaking we find that it is favoring the Employer .This is because of the legal route adopted by the Employers for enforcement of the Bond ,Employers go through the process of Arbitration and get an award very many times exparte i.e in the employees absence .The advantage for Employers is because the Employees are reluctant to part with their address and the Employer goes for service of notice on the old address and gets the verdict from the Arbitrator in their favor.The scope of the appellate process against such awards is very limited and the award by the Arbitrator is confirmed.The instances of Employees resisting such claims is minimal.Once the Employer gets the verdict the time for enforcement is 12 years.

Therefore it is better to plead to your employer to relieve you from the obligations of the Bond by sending an “escalation letter “to the Higher up than your HR Head say if it is an MNC to the HQ.It may sometimes work.In case this also does not work out you can send a “frustration Letter” for the record.In case there is legal case this letter may help.For getting the letters you need to take legal help on your specific facts.

The other option exposed by case law on enforcement on negative covenants is where the Employer is forced to terminate the Employee instead of the employee resigning . This option needs to be exercised and dealt with great care as you might have other issues cropping up. .If there is termination then the Bond cannot be enforced.

Also creating an Employees Forum in CITE HR with an All India Network to provide Legal Assistance at nominal cost to defend Bond cases on the Employees side can be a solution.This can match the legal strength of the Employers.

Dear Members

Fresher or even employees with experience have to sign Bond. They are forced to sign it and have no other go.We find lot of posts on implications of Bond. It is better to take preventive steps and not repent and be in a fix later .

Before signing a Bond the following precaution needs to be taken:-

In case the Bond is to cover Training Expenses i.e. Training Bond.

i) Check on the amount of the Bond;

ii) Check up the cost of Training and whether the Employee will actually spend the amount.;

iii) See whether the liability to pay arises after the Company incurs the cost of training which shall be notified by the Employer separately;

iv) Request for proportionate reduction of the Bond amount dependent on the period of service.

In case the Bond is to cover service with the Employer for a particular period i.e. Service Bond.

i) Check the amount of the Bond. It must be reasonable and not an unreasonable amount and also the period has to be checked. This is also to be reasonable.

ii) It should also mention that it is for voluntary resignation and not for termination or forced termination by the Employer.

iii) Request for proportionate reduction of the Bond amount dependant upon the period of service.

With Regards

Hi
The Employemnet Bonds or Agreement for a acertain duration are only valid if it can be proved by the company that special training has been imparted to the employee at a cost ,otherwise the agreement shall be deemed to be null and void ,but ofcourse the judiciary will take it own time to give its verdict which can be painful process for the employee.
In the recent past,only positive thing that has been happening is courts are not allowing injections ie.hold on taking new assigments during dispute.

I have also asked them to terminate me which doesnt work out. I realy want to quit the job. How can i do this.? Is there any way without paying the compensation to get out of this. Plz help me.
