New Frontiers in Noncompetition Agreements: Protecting Your Business With Restrictive Covenants

2016 SHRM Talent Management Conference & Exposition
Workplace Application: Learn how you can protect your organization when employees leave so your organization’s knowledge and information stays secure.

Your customers, data and key relationships give you an advantage over competitors. Prudent employers will protect their business interests by requiring workers to sign employment agreements containing post-employment restrictions which come in various forms, such as noncompete clauses, nonsolicitation clauses, nonrecruitment clauses and nondisclosure clauses. You can stop former employees from raiding your business ... and you can do better than simply sending hollow cease and desist letters after they’ve left. Learn how to protect your company's goodwill with confidence, in a legally-enforceable way!
