Keeping Trade Secrets

Trade secrets can take many forms, such as your customer and supplier list, your next marketing campaign, a particular process or formula, or your finances. Here’s how you can protect them:



  • Have all employees, contractors, consultants, advisors and suppliers sign a confidentiality agreement.



  • Restrict access to areas of your office or plant.



  • Mark documents with a confidential legend.



  • Limit circulation of confidential documents.



  • Lock away sensitive material.



  • Include warnings and directives in your employee manual.
