Asked over 3 years ago - Pittsburgh, PA
Contracts Employee Rights Employment Employment Contract Labor Laws

Prospective employer is asking me to provide them with my current Employment Agreement. I am not comfortable with that but they insist on providing them with that information. What are the legal implication of me providing them with that. They are interested in my non compete agreement but I am wondering why are they asking for the whole agreement.

They don't have a right to see your present employment agreement but they have a legitimate interest in not hiring anyone whose presence or knowledge will violate a non-compete agreement. Do you want the job? Then you'd best do as they ask.
