Description

Restrictions to prevent competition by a former contractor are held valid when they are reasonable and necessary to protect the interests of the employer. For example, a provision in a contract which prohibited a contractor for two years from calling on any customer of the employer called on by the contractor during the last six months of employment would generally be valid. Courts will closely examine covenants not to compete signed by individuals in order to make sure that they are not unreasonable as to time or geographical area. For example, suppose a company only operated within a certain city and the covenant not to compete provided that a contractor of the company could not solicit business in the city or within 100 miles of the city if he ever left the employ of the company. Such an agreement would be unreasonable as to its geographical area. The company had no need to be protected regarding such a large geographical area.
