What is solicitation clause contract
A non-solicitation agreement is a common contract clause that says if you work for a competitor, you won't solicit any business clients, bring over any employees, or use any confidential information connected to your current job. In other words, you can't use your old company contacts to help your new company. In any business, two of the most important groups of people are the employees and the customers. Stealing customers takes something extremely valuable from a company. Put simply, a non-solicitation clause is a contract between an employer and an exiting employee that states that the employee will not solicit the company’s clients for their own gain or for the gain of their next employer.
