I would like to seek your advise on the employment contracts:
1. There is a non-disclosure agreement stated in the contract that after resignation, it is not allowed work in a competitor's company for 1 year.
Is this fair to the employee as there is no any compensation for this clause? If I work in a competitor company after resignation, and the previous employer sue me on this, what would be the consequences?
2. Within the contract period of 1 year, if employee resigns, have to inform company one month in advance AND pay company one more month; while if company do not want the employee, it can just inform the employee one month in advance OR just pay one month in lieu.
This is not a fair clause between employee and employer, so will this contract still valid?
Appreciate your time in looking into it and look forward to hear from you soon.
