Golden handcuffs are a system of financial incentives designed to keep an employee from leaving the company. These can include employee stock options which will not vest for several years but are more often contractual obligations to give back lucrative bonuses or other compensation if the employee leaves for another company. In BusinessGolden handcuffs are a response by the companies in industries where it is common for highly compensated employees to frequently move from one firm to another, often before the company feels that it has earned a return on the investment in the employee. Some US courts have held such plans to violate the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) by failing to vest benefits.
In television, if a host has signed the 'golden handcuffs' deal with the network, it means they cannot appear on any other rival channel. An example of this would be British television hosts Ant & Dec. More broadly, the term can also refer to any kind of situation in which a generous salary is used to keep an important employee from looking for a more desirable but less certain position.

Q. I'm 35 years old and I've worked for a huge company for 3 years as a secretary and they just majorly downsized. It's been over three weeks and everyone that's left has been placed in their new position and knows who their new manager is but me. The first week I figured, I would not say anything because no one knew what was going on with anyone. By the 2nd week, everyone had pretty much figured out where they were in the organization and by now, people are actually settling in. During the second week, I started asking my old manager who my new manager was going to be and he kept saying he had no idea. I contacted HR and the director of HR said she didn't know and that someone would tell me.

'No, would you like to give it a try?' Understandably curious, the man says, 'Well, OK...' So he wrapped his arms around the tree and pressed his ear up against it. At that time this the other guy slapped a pair of handcuffs on him, took his wallet, jewelry, car keys, then stripped him naked and left.
