Document background
This Staffing Non Compete Agreement is designed for use in New Zealand business contexts where protection of legitimate business interests is essential. The document is particularly relevant when engaging employees or contractors who will have access to sensitive information, significant client relationships, or valuable intellectual property. It includes carefully crafted restrictions that comply with New Zealand's restraint of trade principles, ensuring enforceability while balancing the employer's interests with the employee's right to work. The agreement should be customized based on factors such as the employee's role, access to confidential information, and the geographical scope of the business. Under New Zealand law, non-compete provisions must be reasonable in duration and scope to be enforceable.
