The Employment Law Solicitors:

Restrictive Covenants

Restrictive covenants in the employment context are essentially obligations upon the employee towards the employer to refrain from particular activities once they have ceased working for the employer. The most common are:-

Confidentiality re employers business affairs
Not to compete with the employer in certain ways and/or in certain areas for a specific period
Not to recruit employees of the employer for a specific period
Not to approach or deal with customers of the employee

The restrictions imposed must be reasonable otherwise the employer runs the risk of them being struck out as an unfair restraint of trade.

The Employment Law Solicitors, the brand, is part of Antrobus Solicitors, a firm regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority. Details of the professional rules which regulate solicitors can be found at the following website address: http://www.rules.sra.org.uk
