Los acuerdos de no competencia restringen las oportunidades laborales para los empleados tras su salida del trabajo. Por lo tanto, es crucial pensar detenidamente antes de aceptar cualquier acuerdo sin considerar todas las implicaciones legales.<\/p>\n

Antes de firmar un acuerdo de no competencia, deber\u00edas hacerte algunas preguntas.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. \u00bfQu\u00e9 hacen estos acuerdos?<\/strong>Un acuerdo de no competencia puede impedir que trabaje en diversos lugares y cargos si deja su empleo. Dependiendo de los detalles de su empleador y de su rol, estas cl\u00e1usulas podr\u00edan impedirle trabajar para un competidor en una determinada zona geogr\u00e1fica, iniciar una empresa competidora durante un determinado n\u00famero de a\u00f1os o imponer cualquier n\u00famero de otras restricciones.<\/li>\n
  2. \u00bfEs un acuerdo v\u00e1lido?<\/strong>Las cl\u00e1usulas de no competencia deben cumplir con los requisitos criterios espec\u00edficos<\/a> deber\u00e1n ser exigibles. Estas condiciones deben ser razonables en su alcance, proteger un inter\u00e9s leg\u00edtimo de la empresa y no ser perjudiciales para usted ni para el p\u00fablico. Los acuerdos que no cumplan estas normas pueden ser inv\u00e1lidos.<\/li>\n
  3. \u00bfExiste espacio para la negociaci\u00f3n?<\/strong>Es posible que puedas negociar algunos aspectos de una cl\u00e1usula de no competencia. Por ejemplo, podr\u00edas reducir el tiempo en el que se aplicar\u00e1n las restricciones o definir qu\u00e9 empresas no permitir\u00e1s que trabajes, en lugar de restringir categor\u00edas generales de empresas y puestos de trabajo. La especificidad es fundamental en estos contratos, por lo que negociar estos detalles puede ser una buena idea.<\/li>\n
  4. \u00bfQu\u00e9 sucede si no lo firma?<\/strong>No es necesario firmar un acuerdo de no competencia. Sin embargo, debe saber lo que ocurrir\u00e1 si decide no hacerlo. Su empleador podr\u00eda despedirlo; un posible empleador podr\u00eda decidir no contratarle. Debe conocer si el empleador ofrece disposiciones monetarias o no monetarias a cambio de firmar el acuerdo.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Contratos de no competencia<\/a> han pasado a ser cada vez m\u00e1s comunes. Sin embargo, su uso puede ser controvertido, especialmente en lo que respecta a contratos innecesarios o irrazonables.<\/p>\n

    Debido a esto, puede ser esencial que los empleadores y los empleados tengan orientaci\u00f3n legal a medida que afrontan problemas relacionados con estos y otros acuerdos laborales.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
