Employee Confidential

An invention assignment agreement is a contract that gives the employer certain rights to inventions created or conceptualized by the employee during the employment relationship.

Personnel information is confidential, and information in an employee's file, such as social security number, salary, health records, disciplinary actions and termination reason can't be discussed with other employees. Most of this information can't be discussed with potential employers who call for a reference.

Employee confidentiality agreements are generally one sided, unless you are also obtaining confidential information from the employee.Each state sets its own law regarding confidentiality agreement enforcement. Check with your state for more information.

Confidentiality agreements usually allow the recipient to disclose confidential information if required to do so by court order or other legal process.

Examples of confidential information include, but are not limited to: Information about the Company's operations, results, earnings projections, strategies, clients or client relationships, proprietary products or employee records.

A Proprietary Information Agreement is a legally binding contract stipulating a number of parties must not disclose confidential supplies, data, or information.

Employees can void any non-competes that require a court outside of California to decide disputes. In other words, the company cannot enforce an employee's non-compete agreement in a state that allows these agreements. Employees are able to void contracts with illegal non-compete terms.
