Non-compete clause (or competition clause) is an agreement between employer and employee concluded pursuant to Sec 310 of the Czech Labour Code (CLC). Such clause obliges employees to refrain, for a certain period of time not exceeding one year after termination of their employment, from being involved in gainful activities that would be similar or identical to the former employer´s business activity or competitive in nature. The employer on the other hand undertakes to provide adequate monetary consideration for each month this obligation is observed. This compensation shall be no less than one half of the employee´s former average monthly earnings for each month the said obligation is observed. The monetary consideration shall be payable on a monthly basis unless agreed otherwise. The clause must be agreed in writing.
