Question

Can an employee be forced to sign a contract after the fact. For example, I was told I had to take a training course or loose my job. My agency paid for the course and now that the class is complete they are asking me to sign a two year contract. If I leave within the next two years I would have to reimburse them for a class they made me attend. Is this legal?



Answer

They cannot force you to sign it. However, they may fire you, in which event you may be entitled to unemployment compensation.
