Document background
The Confidentiality Agreement Upon Termination Of Employment is a crucial document used when an employee leaves an organization in Hong Kong. It serves to protect sensitive business information, trade secrets, and intellectual property that the employee had access to during their employment. This agreement is particularly important in today's competitive business environment where information security is paramount. It should be presented to employees as part of their exit process, clearly outlining their ongoing obligations under Hong Kong law regarding confidentiality, document retention, and information handling. The agreement typically works in conjunction with existing employment contracts and is designed to be enforceable under Hong Kong jurisdiction while maintaining reasonable scope and duration.
