Document background
A Cease And Desist Letter Former Employee is a critical legal tool used when a company discovers that a former employee is engaging in activities that breach their post-employment obligations under Irish law. This document is typically employed when there is evidence of unauthorized use of confidential information, violation of non-compete agreements, improper solicitation of clients or employees, or breach of intellectual property rights. The letter must carefully balance the company's right to protect its legitimate business interests with the former employee's right to work, while ensuring compliance with Irish employment law, data protection regulations, and competition law. It serves as both a formal warning and a potential prerequisite to legal proceedings, documenting the company's attempts to resolve the situation before pursuing court action.
