Part-time Employment Contract with Restrictive Covenants
This Part-time Employment Contract contains detailed restrictive covenants, particularly in relation to non-solicitation and non-compete.
This Part-time Employment Contract with Restrictive Covenants is most applicable to part time junior roles where an enhanced level of restriction is needed.
Employers must provide workers and employees with a written statement of their main terms and conditions of employment and this is often known as a Standard Form Section One Statement.
In this contract the specific restrictions are contained in a Schedule to the main agreement. The contract requires that the employee provides any prospective new employer with a signed copy of the Schedule so that they are aware of the restrictions that the employee is subject to. The non-solicitation clause provides that for a period of time after termination of employment the employee can’t poach certain employees with whom the employee had substantial dealings or who reported to the employee. The non-compete clause provides that for a period of time after termination of employment the employee will not compete with the company’s business, will not deal with the company’s customers (with whom the employee has had substantial dealings) in competition with the company’s business and for a more limited period will not solicit the company’s customers (with whom the employee has had substantial dealings) at all, even if not in competition with the company’s business.
Restrictive covenants should be no wider than is necessary to protect your “legitimate business interests”. If their scope is too wide, they may not be enforceable. Please ensure that you carefully consider each restrictive covenant, removing any that are not relevant to your particular business and to the specific employee. Ensure that time and geographical limits are appropriate and reasonable to the nature of your business.
