Review List
This review list is provided to inform you about this document in question and assist you in its preparation. This Non-Disclosure agreement appears in a more complex form in other employment documents. The purpose of using this one is that it is narrow in scope and therefore both more enforceable and acceptable to prospective signers due to its limited nature.
- Make multiple copies. Keep one in the individual’s file and another in a general non-disclosure file. Give one to the signer as well.
