Guide - Restrictive Covenants

About Guide - Restrictive Covenants Android App

There are few areas of employment law which differ as significantly between countries as the laws relating to post-termination restrictions. The increasing trend for key employees to have international responsibilities, be globally mobile, and for post-termination restrictions to apply across many different jurisdictions is a challenge. In reality, when enforcement issues arise the decisions taken in the early stages of action may determine the outcome weeks or months later. That’s why we've created the Global Guide to Restrictive Covenants in over 40 countries.

We discuss non-compete covenants, non-solicitation covenants and non-solicitation of employees' clauses, issues relating to employee benefits, pension, stock plans and much more...

We hope you find this publication useful; it has been made possible by input from lawyers from across Mayer Brown's global office network and partner law firms in other jurisdictions.
