I was always under the impression that even if you haven't signed a contract of employment, if it has been issued to you (and the employer has evidence of issue) then you are bound by it if you have continued to work and accept a salary - is that correct?
We have a clause in our handbook and T&Cs to say that if someone leaves within a certain period after we have paid for a course (a degree, not just a one-day course) then they have to repay it if they leave within a certain period of time - someone has handed their notice in and has said that as they 'haven't ever seen the document', they aren't going to repay their fees.
Where do we stand on this? It is several thousand pounds, and we can't afford to not get the £ back if we aren't going to get the benefit of the training.
Thank you!
