โ๏ธ Can Your Employer Sue You for Discussing a Discrimination Settlement?
A recent New York court decision highlights why the details of a settlement agreement matter.
In this case, the court dismissed an employerโs lawsuit after finding its confidentiality provision unenforceable because a required separate agreement was missing.
Hereโs what to know:
๐นConfidentiality clauses have limits. They must comply with applicable law.
๐น The process matters. New York law may require a separate agreement confirming an employeeโs preference for confidentiality.
๐น Read before signing. Understand your rights and obligations before agreeing to settlement terms.
๐ The takeaway: Donโt assume every confidentiality clause is enforceable. The wording and legal process matter.
