What is a non-disclosure agreement?
In the employment world, non-disclosure agreements are commonly referred to as NDA’s. NDA’s are restrictive covenants aimed to prevent employees from revealing sensitive information to competitors. These clauses often become an issue when an employee decides to seek similar employment with another company.
In a nutshell, employers use NDA’s as a workplace intimidation tactic to prevent their staff from working with a rival business. But these agreements are often too broad or poorly written. They include unrealistic terms that are difficult to enforce.
