A Maine Non-Compete Agreement is used to document in writing the particular agreement that an employer has with an employee regarding classified information within the company. Details about which information should be kept secret and how long for (after leaving the company) need to all be clearly outlined in the agreement itself. Failing to sign this agreement could lead to an employee leaking such information - whether by accident or by purpose. The results of this can be devastating for a business, therefore we would suggest obtaining and editing a Maine Non-Compete Agreement Template . The template can be edited to include precise information regarding your business along with your rules of confidentiality.
This agreement has the ability to protect a business, but the conditions should be carefully thought out and need to be fair in respect to the employee. Even though there is no law in Maine governing this agreement, the conditions stipulated in the agreement should not seek to severely impair new employment .
