About This Document
An employee non-compete agreement (or a ‘covenant to not-to-compete’ or ‘agreement not to compete’ or simply ‘non-compete/non- competition agreement’) is a legal instrument under which one party (usually an employee) agrees to not pursue a similar profession or trade in competition against another party (usually the employer). Signing an employee non-compete agreement essentially means waiving the employee rights to pursue a job within a particular geographic area for a period of time with the employer's competitors. It might also waive an employee’s rights to compete with the employer in ways such as that of a contractor, shareholder, partnership, consulting, self-employment etc.
