| The international perspective on employee competition: casting new light on an old problem Originally, non-competition agreements were predominately limited to competition activities within the country where employees have previously performed their work duties. In the global marketplace, these agreements are now increasingly concluded in the context of cross-border labour mobility. This article considers the two principal concerns that arise for employers and their companies in this international context when considering applying and enforcing non-competition agreements: The law the employer and the employee have chosen to apply to the non-competition agreement may not apply. In the event of a legal dispute, the appealed local court may not have jurisdiction to settle the dispute. The authors examine these risks and solution strategies by scrutinising the legal framework for cross-border mobility connected to at least one of the EU member states, outlining some key actions to take to build a successful strategy for handling these challenges from a European law perspective.
