Non-Compete Letter to Employee

Confidentiality and Non-Competition Agreement

– The employee desires to be employed by the company in a capacity in which he/she may receive, contribute, or develop confidential and proprietary information. Such information is important to the future of the company and the company expects the employee to keep secret such proprietary and confidential information and not to compete with the company during his/her employment and for a reasonable period after employment.

Non-disclosure Agreement - Employee to Corporation - Detailed

– This is a confidentiality agreement between an employee and corporation. The parties acknowledge that the confidential information has independent economic value to the corporation. Employee further acknowledges that the corporation has taken steps to preserve and safeguard the secrecy of the confidential information. The employee understands that absent his entering into this agreement, the corporation would not enter into the employment agreement with the employee.

Employee Confidentiality and Nondisclosure - Non-disclosure Agreement

III. TIPS ON COMPLETING THE FORMS

The form(s) in this packet may contain “form fields” created using Microsoft Word or Adobe Acrobat (".pdf" format). “Form fields” facilitate completion of the forms using your computer. They do not limit your ability to print the form “in blank” and complete with a typewriter or by hand.

It is also helpful to be able to see the location of the form fields. Go to the View menu, click on Toolbars, and then select Forms. This will open the Forms toolbar. Look for the button on the Forms toolbar that resembles a shaded letter "a". Click this button and the form fields will be visible.

By clicking on the appropriate form field, you will be able to enter the needed information. In some instances, the form field and the line will disappear after information is entered. In other cases, it will not. The form was created to function in this manner.
