Oliver Sedlacek said: 
UK employment law considers non-compete clauses to be illegal because they prescribe a person's employability. This has been tested in UK courts. I think that's only if it unreasonably restricts a person's employability. It certainly doesn't give a company carte blanche to gain access to a competitor's trade secrets by head-hunting their key employees... A former employer does still have the right to expect that you will keep their secrets secret!  |
