What consequences happen for breaching indemnity bond ?

The bond could be enforced throguh due process of law, not unilaterally.

You have committed same error that majority of the employees commit…

Employee should consult elders of the family, competent and experienced well wishers, seasoned employee’s/trade union leaders, a very able LOCAL senior counsel of unshakable repute and integrity specializing in Labor/service matters, before signing blindly on dotted line………..

Since you have signed by your free will, you have the opportunity to employer and its attorneys in HR/personnel/Admin/legal cells to agitate and stake a claim on the basis of signed document and press the conditions of signed document that you have termed as ‘Indemnity Bond’.

There are many threads on similar query at LCI that are highly illustrated and have attachments of applicable enactments and citations/judgments……………and you can search in ‘SEARCH’ option in Forum/Experts sections, news, Articles, Files…………

Do you have copies of job advt, job application, interview call letter, selection letter, offer letter, appointment letter…………and said document that you have termed as ‘Indemnity Bond’.

If you wish you may attach these in this thread.

You may erase the names, logo etc to maintain confidentiality or show these to a very able LOCAL senior counsel of unshakable repute and integrity specializing in Labor/service matters.

What are these false promises made by employer or its attorneys that you have mentioned?

Do you have any evidence of any such promises made to you and not fulfilled?  In other words any grounds that would render employer violator of its own promises/committements/rights of employee and/or T&C of Bond drafted by it  and hence unworthy of being employed with?

Have you documented these false promises made to you under proper acknowledgment?

Do any of these documents mention that you will have to sign an ‘Indemnity Bond’?

Did employer issue any written communication that employee (you) have to sign an ‘Indemnity Bond’?

Did employer issue any written communication that employee (you) have to resign and submit copy of resignation /its acceptance/service certificate/relieving letter before joining?

Were you asked to sign and/or did you sign Bond after resigning from previous employment and after joining current employer?

Did employer issue and sign appointment letter with you after joining and after signing Bond or after issuing appointment letter?

The said Bond is crafted in lieu of what extra ordinary benefits say: some certified training from some certified Instt. That added some qualification to you or some extra ordinary skills?

What reason/logic is inserted in said Bond for crafting Bond for employee by employer?

Does employer agree to tender same/equivalent liquidated damages if IT separates by termination during period of Bond?

Has employer inserted notice period of 90days for employee and notice pay in lieu of notice period in appointment letter?

Does employer agree to tender same/equivalent notice period of 90days for employee and notice pay in lieu of notice period in appointment letter, if IT separates by termination during notice period?

I am unable to understand the purpose of asking such a detailed information for reply to a simple looking question of the member.

However, if asked just for the purpose of space filling at LCI that is another issue.
