A confidentiality agreement usually includes a mention of the parties involved, the elements of confidentiality, the duration of the contract and the employee`s obligations with respect to confidential information. The standard employment contract and FWO`s full employment contract contain both clauses that cover confidentiality and business restrictions and protect an employer`s activities. To prevent sensitive business information from being disseminated to the public, an employer may subject an employee to a confidentiality agreement. A frequent example is the secrecy of trade secrets in which an outgoing worker cannot use the carefully guarded knowledge of his former employer to fight him. Generally speaking, the courts consider that the restriction of trade is inappropriate if it is too vague or too broad. .
