What is a non-compete clause?  

The non-compete clause has no legal regime. Its regime is solely based on case law. 

It is a clause by which a former employee of a company agrees not to compete with his former employer. 

What about case law? 

A ruling of July 10, 2002 highlights the conditions to be met for the implementation of this clause:

  • the clause must be written
  • the clause must meet the legitimate interest of the company
  • the non-compete clause must be limited in time and space
  • the act of competition must be well defined the non-compete clause must contain a financial consideration to be paid by the employer

What are the consequences in case of violation of the clause: 

  • the judge could order the employee who violated the clause to abandon the competitive employment
  • the employee no longer receives the financial consideration
  • to which he was entitled the employee is ordered to pay damages and interests to the employer
