Employment Agreement

Photo by Kreis Enderle Webite

During my current internship, I have not signed any confidentiality or non-disclosure agreements with the organization. The only thing I have done is the internship agreement form in the internship course, which only contains personal information, organizational information and my role and position during the internship.

I need to fill in my personal information and sign it, then send it to my supervisor, who signs it, and then submit it to the internship course website. The goal is to keep work problems from cropping up. To ensure that I have a positive attitude in my work and responsibility for the organization’s interests.

In the article: “What Is an Employment Agreement? “Types, Pros & Cons” refers to job responsibilitie, this section Outlines the duties that employees are expected to perform during their employment. In some cases, this section is general and leaves room for interpretation; In other cases, this section may be extremely specific, including daily, weekly, or monthly goals and minimum requirements.

Then in the article: “Using Nondisclosure Agreements to Protect Business Trade Secrets” it is mentioned how nondisclosure agreements protect you, assuming that you or your company will disclose confidential information. You are the Disclosing Party. The other party, the person to whom you are disclosing the information, is the “receiving party.”

The NDA establishes a confidential relationship between you and the recipient and requires the recipient to keep the information confidential. If the recipient breaches this obligation, you may seek a court order (injunction) preventing the violator from further disclosure. You can also Sue the receiving party for any financial damages resulting from the breach of the confidentiality agreement. This will help in the establishment of a business in the future to ensure compensation for economic losses.
