Non-Competition Provision. Provisions in contracts of employment that prohibit the hiring of employees by competitors of the employer are non-binding if such an engagement is wider in scope than would be necessary in order to prevent competition or to limit in an unfair manner the employee’s freedom to employment. If that would be the case, each case must be evaluated on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all circumstances. Competition provisions may not be worded too generally. When assessing how far-reaching competition provisions in an employment contract may be, particularly as regards their scope of application and the time limits involved, the following factors must be considered: a. The type of work performed by the worker involved, e.g. is he/she a key employee, is he/she in direct contact with the customers or is there significant confidentiality attached to his/her job? In addition, what knowledge or information the employee might possess with regard to the activities of the company or its customers. b. How quickly the employee’s knowledge becomes outdated and whether a normal balance is kept among the employees. c. The type of operations involved and the identity of the competitors in the market where the company operates and which the employee’s know-how covers. d. That an employee’s freedom of employment is not restricted in an unfair manner. e. That the non-competition clause is delineated and concise with regard to the purpose of protecting certain competition interests. f. The remuneration of the employee will also have an effect, i.e. for instance, what his wages are. The competition provisions of employment contracts do not apply if the employee is dismissed from his job without sufficient cause.
Non-Competition Provision. During Employment. EMPLOYEE agrees that during his/her employment by EMPLOYER he/she will not engage directly or indirectly in any location within the United States, in any business of the same or similar nature to the business of EMPLOYER or any business in which EMPLOYER is engaged in developing, nor will EMPLOYEE participate directly or indirectly in the ownership or management of any enterprise engaged in such a business within the United States, including ownership or management as defined by the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ Act of 2002. This provision acts in concert with Section 1, Employment by Company, which requires EMPLOYEE to devote all of EMPLOYEE’S effort and skill exclusively to EMPLOYER.
