Nothing unles the employe took him to court about it and won his case.
The answer above is wrong. Employment contracts are self-enforcing, almost always including an enforcement mechanism. If an employer violated its contract, the employee would cite the enforcement clause, and demand the arbitration or mediation process described there.
A civil suit taking six years is no way to enforce employment contracts.
To know the rights and responsibilities of the employees and his or her employer. Because Employment Contracts is a contract detailing employment terms.
Yes its possible - if the state employment laws allow them to and there was no employment contract involved.
if it is part of your contract or conditions of employment.
An employment contract dictates the conditions of employment, such as salary, vacation, benefits, etc. An "at will" employee serves at the pleasure of the employer, meaning their employment can be terminated at any time, for any reason, or for no reason at all. The effect of an employment contract on an at-will employee would be to set salary, benefits and so on as long as the employee worked at that employer.
It depends on your employment contract, but, obviously, if the company is actually a cleaning company then the employees would expect to clean toilets.
Yes, an employer can legally require employees to travel for work as long as it is within the terms of the employment contract and complies with labor laws and regulations.
A contract of employment is a document which describes the employer and employee agreement. The document contains the duties to be done over a certain duration and the amount of remuneration to be expected.
A substantive contract is a legally binding contract between an employer and an employee that details the duties and expectations of the position. With this contract legal action can be taken if either party is in breach of the agreement.
If an employer utilizes a non-compete clause, most employers will not even offer employment if a non-compete clause is not signed beforehand. However, if the employer wants to establish a non-compete clause with current employees after the fact, then it depends on what state you live in and what your employment contract contains. For instance, in an employment-at-will state, an employer can terminate your employment for no reason at all (except if protected under Federal laws such as discriminatory practices or retaliation to whistleblowing); in this case, yes, your employment could be terminated if you don't sign. If you are in a right-to-employment state or operate under an employment contract, then review your contract to determine if your employer can terminate employment if you do not sign.

No law covers it and it is not against the law. It might be addressed in the employment contract the employee should have signed when hired. If the employment contract does not mention a non-compete clause, employees are free to steal clients from their former employer with reckless abandon.
