Nondisclosure Agreements
Following an active legislative session in Colorado, employers in the Centennial State will soon have a range of new compliance obligations to manage in areas including age discrimination, harassment and nondisclosure agreements.
An NLRB ruling that nondisparagement or confidentiality clauses in separation agreements are unlawful if they would restrict or interfere with an employee's labor rights applies retroactively, according to a new General Counsel guidance memo.
The NLRB put the brakes on the use of nondisparagement and confidentiality clauses in separation agreements if they require employees to waive their rights under the National Labor Relations Act.
If signed by President Biden as expected, the Speak Out Act will make nondisclosure agreements (NDAs) and nondisparagement contract clauses relating to disputes involving sexual assault and sexual harassment unenforceable by the courts if they were signed before a dispute arose.
A new law bars employers from requiring or asking employees to sign provisions that bar them from disclosing illegal conduct in the workplace.
