Common use of Work Commitment Clause in Contracts

Work Commitment. All employees who target a credential title after July 1, 1994, and receive tuition toward a credential title must fulfill a work commitment of two (2) years in State service from the completion of the most recent course taken as part of a degree program. Any such employees who voluntarily leave State employment prior to fulfilling this commitment, will be responsible at the time of State separation to reimburse the State for tuition and fees paid toward the credential title. For employees who targeted a credential title prior to July 1, 1994, and are currently working toward that title, the Upward Mobility Program may, upon appeal within each fiscal year and contingent upon available funding, pay full-time tuition and approved fees if the employees agree in writing to work two (2) years for the State of Illinois following the completion of their degrees or the most recent course taken as part of their degree programs. Any such employees who voluntarily leave State employment prior to fulfilling this commitment, will be responsible at the time of State separation for repaying the program any amounts paid above normal program benefits. The amount of reimbursement will be prorated on a monthly basis relative to the extent the work commitment is fulfilled. An annual interest rate of 7% will be charged to the amount owed to the State of Illinois beginning 30 days after notification of repayment. The State of Illinois can withhold funds, including, but not limited to, retirement distribution and tax refunds, if payment is not made and will refer seriously past due accounts to a private collection agency. The Upward Mobility Advisory Committee will determine if payback is required for employees who separate for such reasons as health, layoff, discharge and resignation no reinstatement rights.
