Protecting an Employer’s Business – Post-Termination Restrictions (PTRs) and Confidentiality
Post Termination Restrictions (PTRs) can be an effective way of protecting an employer’s business by restricting the post-termination activities of a departing employee. Courts in Hong Kong have readily enforced PTRs for the benefit of ex-employers, but what can an employer do to ensure best practices are met and a PTR is upheld?
Join our Partners Andrea Randall and Nick Dealy on Friday 9th October for an informative discussion on:
-
What constitutes confidential information;
-
What a PTR is, types of PTRs and why they are important;
-
Tips for drafting effective PTRs;
-
The Court’s approach to PTRs and enforceability in Hong Kong;
-
Remedies for breaches of confidence and/or PTRs;
-
The scope of springboard injunctions and the McLarens v Poon Chi Fai Corey case;
-
Other case studies – GFI Securities v ICAP, Kao Lee & Yip v Edwards, and Bridge v Deacons.
Date: Friday 9th October
Time: 11am-12pm HKT
Location: Online via Zoom
