Question: Hello, I am a recent graduate and have signed a tripartite agreement with a unit, but now I have been admitted to the military civilian service. Do you need to pay liquidated damages for breaking the agreement?
If no employment unit provides special training and agreed service period, the employees are not required to bear the liability for breach of contract and pay liquidated damages. There are only two aspects of liquidated damages stipulated in the Labor Contract Law, namely, the liquidated damages for breach of service period agreement and the liquidated damages for breach of non competition obligations. In addition, it is not allowed to set liquidated damages. Even if it is set, it is invalid because of the violation of the law. Negotiate with the employer in advance.
