A non-competition clause is a provision in the employment contract restricting an employee’s freedom to work for another employer or as a self-employed person after the end of the employment contract in the manner described in the non-competition clause.
Fixed-term employment contracts concluded on or after 1 January 2015 can only include a non-competition clause if there are substantial business or service interests that require it. This requires a specific and reasoned description in the employment contract. Mr Otto Lenselink regularly advises employers and employees on relation and non-competition clauses. If the interests require it, legal proceedings are also conducted on these topics. For a ruling by the ’s Hertogenbosch Court of Appeal, in which Mr Lenselink acted as lawyer for one of the parties involved, please refer to the following link: https://deeplink.rechtsrpraak.nl/judgment?id=ECLI:NL:GSHE:2017/47:.
