Hi guys,
Got a quick question for you. After seeing out a three month contract (my first one), I've been offered an extension of another 3 months. I've been with Giant Group for the initial three months who've been processing my pay roll.
After looking over my take home pay it seems i'd be much better off using my own ltd company and I'd like to do that when I extend my contract. The only problem is my contract with Giant states the following -
13.1 You hereby agree that you shall not (without the prior consent in writing of the Company) for a period of 12 months immediately following the termination of your employment with the Company, indirectly or directly or through an agency or otherwise and whether on your own behalf or in conjunction with or on behalf of any other person, firm, company or other organisation, (in any Capacity whatsoever), (a) be employed or engaged in, or (b) perform services in respect of, or (c) be otherwise concerned with the Customer for whom you were carrying out an Assignment, provided always that the provisions of this clause 13.1 shall apply only in respect of Services with which you were either personally concerned or for which you were responsible whilst employed by the Company during the 12 months immediately preceding the termination of your employment
This seems pretty shady to me. I was wondering if anyone had any similar experiences of such clauses and how they're enforced?
