A single clause that states when a sign-on bonus is allowed and how its repayment or amortization is handled.
"I want to attract top talent quickly but protect the company if the hire leaves early."
A sign-on bonus clause declares eligibility conditions for one-time cash incentives, specifies whether the bonus is paid upfront or amortized into ongoing compensation, and defines repayment (clawback) terms if employment ends within a defined period.
