PTRs, also known as restrictive covenants, are highly useful tool when it comes to protecting
your business, yet these types of provisions and the scope of the same, are often

injunctive proceedings being brought against you and consideration of PTRs should play a
key part of the process when hiring incoming talent from a competitor.
Our panel of expert employment lawyers will cover the following useful topics, whilst
leaving time for live questions and answers:-
