Practice question
Assume a valid clause prohibits a defined competitive activity for two years after separation and no other duty is in issue. The employee begins that activity only after the two-year period has expired. Does that fact alone breach this clause?
- Yes; a two-year clause lasts forever.
- Yes; the employer may extend it unilaterally without basis.
- Any later work automatically revives the period.
- No; the stated restriction period has expired.
- Only the old employee number matters.
