Employment Covenants and Confidential Information: Law, Practice and Technique

Competition from ex- (or even current) employees is an increasingly common problem faced by employers in commerce and industry. Employers are now placing much greater emphasis on their legal rights and more practitioners are being asked to advise on such matters. This work sets out the law, practice and appropriate strategy from both the employer's and the employee's point of view. It covers all the stages from drawing up the contract, through what to do when a breach of contract appears to have taken place, to the available remedies. The emphasis is on the practical approach, giving checklists, flowcharts and precedents.
