From the magazine

Non-competition clause

For a post-contractual non-compete obligation to be valid in an employment agreement several provisions must be considered. The Swiss Federal Supreme Court has recently published a new decision on this matter. This article in the MME Magazine analyses this decision and contains tips for drafting post-contractual non-compete clauses.
