FAQ

Employment contracts or settlement agreements containing nondisclosure agreements (NDAs) or non-disparagement clauses pertaining to sexual misconduct allegations are now void under Utah state law.

In Part 1 of this series, I explained that Utah courts will enforce Restrictive Covenants (like non-compete agreements, non-solicitation agreements, no-hire clauses, and similar provisions), as long as they are written to protect the employer's “blood, sweat, and tears”—its innovation, investment, goodwill, etc.

Completing the Confidentiality Agreement The "Receiving Party" is the person or company who receives the confidential information and is obligated to keep it secret. You'll need to fill in information specific to your circumstances in the spaces provided, such as the parties' names and addresses.

H.B. 55 adds a new section to the Utah Antidiscrimination Act providing that nondisclosure or non-disparagement clauses regarding sexual misconduct (sexual assault or harassment) required as a condition of employment are against public policy, void and unenforceable.

2. NDAs are enforceable when they are signed — if they are properly drafted and executed.

If you need an NDA, looking at templates online isn't a bad place to start, but ideally you should work with a lawyer who can write a simple NDA for you or tweak the one you have. You may be able to find someone in your community who can do it for a few hundred bucks.

Utah lawmakers added redundancy in March with a bill that prohibits NDAs “related to sexual assault and sexual harassment, as a condition of employment.” “The only way that sexual harassment and violence in the workplace happens is when we cannot talk about it and point it out to stop it,” Rep.

If both parties under the NDA were signing as sole proprietors, you have to ensure that both your full names are stated clearly. If you wanted to ensure that there would be no doubt about who the parties were, then you could add identification information such as addresses or social security numbers.

You do not need a lawyer to create and sign a non-disclosure agreement. However, if the information you are trying to protect is important enough to warrant an NDA, you may want to have the document reviewed by someone with legal expertise.
