An Employer and Employee Confidentiality Agreement is a contract between an employer and an employee that outlines the confidential information to which the employee has access and that must be kept confidential during and after the employment relationship. It establishes a confidential relationship between the employer and employee and outlines the consequences of any breach of the agreement. The agreement generally covers information such as business plans, customer lists, trade secrets, financial information, pricing data, and other confidential information. The agreement typically states that the employee will not disclose confidential information to any third party without authorization from the employer. It also outlines the employee’s obligations to protect confidential information and the potential for legal action if the agreement is breached. There are two main types of Employer and Employee Confidentiality Agreements: mutual and unilateral. A mutual agreement is one where both the employer and the employee agree to the terms and conditions of the agreement, while a unilateral agreement is one in which only the employer agrees to the terms and conditions of the agreement.
