As long as the employer provides workers with special training fees and carries out professional skills training, the service period can be agreed. If the laborer violates the service period agreement, he shall pay liquidated damages to the employer in accordance with the agreement.
Legal basis: Article 22 of People's Republic of China (PRC) Labor Contract Law.
