Bus/Financial - Human Resources / employment contracts | | German term or phrase: Wettbewerbsnebenbeschäftigung | All,
I am translating an employment contract from Germany.
The passage reads "Der Mitarbeiter darf während des Bestehens des Arbeitsverhältnisses nur mit ausdrücklicher Genehmigung des Arbeitgebers eine **Wettbewerbsnebenbeschäftigung** ausüben. Eine Zuwiderhandlung rechtfertgt eine fristlose Kündigung....."
I suspect that the whole statement it is something similar to a non-compete clause, but what would be a suitable term?
Thank you. |

Just one or two more ideas... |
