Document background
The Employee Exit NDA is a crucial document used when an employee leaves an organization in the Philippines, regardless of the departure circumstances. It serves to protect confidential information, trade secrets, and intellectual property that the employee had access to during their employment. This document is particularly important in the Philippine context, where the growing knowledge economy and increasing digital transformation have made information protection vital. The agreement must balance the employer's need to protect sensitive information with the employee's constitutional rights and provisions of the Philippine Labor Code. It typically includes specific references to local data privacy laws, intellectual property regulations, and enforcement mechanisms available under Philippine law.
