Sign-On Bonus Clause Samples

A Sign-On Bonus clause outlines the terms under which an employee receives a one-time payment upon joining a company. Typically, this clause specifies the bonus amount, the timing of payment (such as after the first paycheck or upon completion of a probationary period), and any conditions that must be met, like remaining employed for a certain period. Its core function is to incentivize candidates to accept a job offer and to provide immediate financial reward, while also protecting the employer by setting conditions that discourage early resignation.
