Hi,
4 months ago I finished a 12 month contract with a client, through an Agency named on my contract schedule as "XX IT". I've now been offered another contract with the client through their onsite recruitment guys, who are the same agency, minus the 'IT' bit (judging by their email sigs). I've queried the contract clause with the onsite recruitment guys and they confirm that 'they're all part of the larger XX group and therefore it doesn't come into play'. I have this in writing.
FYI - the non-solicitation clause is here:
NON-SOLICITATION
14.1 You hereby agree that you will not, either personally or via any other means
(such as a limited company or partnership) for a period of 12 months
following the end of your assignment provide services to an End User
introduced to you via the Company or a Client. Failure to adhere to this will
entitle the Company to terminate your employment immediately without
giving you any notice or paying you in lieu of notice. In addition, should you
breach this clause you are personally responsible for meeting any claim (as
well as associated costs) made against the Company by a Client."
Anybody think this might be an issue, or am I ok?!
THANKS!
