1. Has anyone else had similar experiences?
2. Is there ANY way this is legal?
--- End quote ---
Seen it myself several times by different companies. Never had it happen to me cause I always worked til they told me to DFR.
Legal? Ethical? Right/Wrong? probably depends on a case by case basis of why someone drag up.
alphadude:
its legal when you sign a conditions of employment. did you sign anything?
UncaBuffalo:
Thanks for all the input...I'll pass it on to the interested parties...
KARMA ALL AROUND!
ELT(SSN):
A nuclear staffing company (unnamed) has offered me a THREE week job with the possibility of an extension. They are paying half the travel up front and half after FOUR weeks on the job but require me to forfeit all of the money if I leave before FOUR weeks.
1. Is this a common policy in the business?
2. Are there laws against travel pay blackmail?
Thanks,
ELT(SS)
