Security Clearance Employment Agreements

If an employer sponsors your security clearance, you may wonder if they could require you to stay with them for a certain term of service following obtaining that clearance. While it's rare, it is possible for companies to request specific terms of employment for personnel after obtaining a clearance or an upgrade. It's rare - and may be difficult to enforce thanks to the complexity of employment laws which vary state by state. The biggest factor in a company's favor is that most employees feel a personal obligation to stay put for a specific amount of time after obtaining a clearance. Employers would likely have a hard time enforcing employment rules, or dollar amounts for a clearance and what would be owed. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
