Hello Members, My query is regarding the joining bonus and notice period. I joined a company in March 2015 as a Business Analyst in Bangalore. The company offered me a joining bonus of Rs. 50,000. It's been mentioned in the offer letter that if you leave the company before completing 1 year, you have to refund the bonus as applicable. The official notice period in this organization is 2 months. It's been 8 months since I joined this organization, and now my question is - if I look for a new opportunity next month (January) and convert the offer as and then, will I be liable to refund the entire joining bonus to the company, as I am completing 1 whole year of employment (including a notice period of 2 months) in March? Kindly suggest.
Thanks

Hi Saurabh,
Please refer to the process manual in your organization, which will have details on the same. Most companies that offer a joining bonus will have a similar clause; however, it is solely at the discretion of the employer whether the mentioned 12 months are inclusive or exclusive of the notice period.
