What happens if I breach a restraint of trade?

Question

Accepted Answer

If you breach a restraint of trade clause or misuse confidential information, your employer may be able to apply to the Employment Relations Authority for an injunction restraining you from continuing such activities.
Your employer may also be able to ask for damages to cover any loss they may have experienced as a result of the breach, and penalties for the breach of contract or a breach of the duty of good faith.
