Aslamoalaikum Dear all,

I was working with my previous employer which restrict us not to leave the company until 2 years are completed whether we have found a better oppurtunity or not. If any employee wishes to leave then has to pay (amount on bond (200k or more)) the company for what he/she has earned by experience.

Such employer threatens by sending the legal notices if one has resigned to switch to a better opportunity than the last employer. Employer also threatens/degrades job/growth by sending letters to the company's HR we have switched to. Turnover against such employer is so high only because it does not provide employee satisfaction at all and employee is degraded all the year by doing other work rather than assigned to the employee as
written on his/her job description. That is the way they have found to put one well educated person onto the brink of his/her career growth as he is a fresh. They exploit the employee on the basis of the bond and threatens if one leaves it such that they take our signs on bond and take a cheque aswell (bounceback if one leaves and put a legal action on it) on the basis of that if wont sign it they wont give us the job (as you already know there are very rare oppurtunities for one to grow in Pakistan). If one finds that oppurtnity and he is threatened to sign a bond in such organizations.

Please Help if any lawyer here.
Also suggest your experiences aswell what if one is in such situation?

Regards,
