Document background
The Employee Repayment Agreement Letter is a crucial document used in Singapore when an employer needs to establish a formal arrangement for recovering costs from an employee. These costs typically relate to training, education, certification, or equipment provided to the employee. The agreement must comply with Singapore's Employment Act and MOM guidelines, particularly regarding salary deductions and fair employment practices. This document is commonly used when employees receive advance benefits or training with a condition of continued employment, or when recovering costs due to early resignation or breach of employment terms. The letter clearly outlines repayment terms, schedules, and obligations while ensuring legal compliance and protection for both parties.
