Hello there!
I have signed a contract whose clause on section 6 describes the payment of a bond related to a training that is required to exercise my job.
Note that the contract is for working as a pilot for a company based in Bermuda. The pilots however will be based in Europe.
Please have a read below, and let me know if this is legal.
My kindest regards,
Cheers.

"Section 6 – Training
6.1. At Company's expense, Pilot shall undergo initial and recurrent training related to the Aircrafts at Flight Safety International or such other training facility or training personnel ("Training') as may be acceptable to the Company.

If Pilot fails to reimburse Company, Pilot authorizes Company to notify any subsequent Pilot employer of Pilot's obligation and to proceed against pilot and/or subsequent employer(s) for such reimbursement. In addition, the Pilot hereby authorizes the Company to set-off any amounts that Pilot is obligated to reimburse hereunder against any amounts payable by the Company to Pilot hereunder."
