Foundations of HR & Employment Law
Confidentiality / NDA clauses
A confidentiality clause narrowly defines what information an employee must keep secret and when it’s allowed to be disclosed.
"I need to protect sensitive business information without accidentally banning employees from talking about their jobs or using general skills."
A confidentiality clause lists the specific types of information considered confidential, explains permitted uses and disclosures, and sets reasonable time limits and exclusions so it’s enforceable and practical.
