Latest cases: enforcing a 12 month non-compete, resignations turning into dismissals and agency workers’ rights to vacant roles

In the latest episode of our Employment Podcast, Chris Fisher and Miriam Bruce look at three recent cases:

whether a 12 month non-compete covenant could be enforced against a solicitor (either through the covenant in their employment contract or the slightly wider covenant in their shareholder agreement);
whether a resignation becomes a dismissal if the employer exercises a payment in lieu clause; and
what rights agency workers have in relation to vacant roles in the client organisation.
