What you need to know before you allow your employer to pay your tuition

Guest - Bukani Mngoma - Labour law expert<br /> <br /> Can an employer deduct money for training should the employee resign within a specific period after completing the training? Many employers provide training to new employees when they join the company. The reason for training may vary from on-the-job training to train the new employee on proprietary systems of software, to being sent on formal skill development courses. Current employee may also require new training should the business’s operational requirements request it and or a new system is being implemented. When an employee resigns, especially soon after completing training, employers are quite justified in feeling wronged. The question becomes, may they hold the employee liable for the costs and expenses incurred for the specific training? <a href="http://www.kayafm.co.za/">Kaya FM </a>
