Hi all,
A quick question with regards to employment contracts and the dreaded "Cannot go to X" statement.
I am currently employeed by Cognizant who contract me out to ADP to specialise in the ADP eTime product.
ADP are trying to cut costs and as a result will not be renewing that contract in March which leaves me in no mans land as such.
The ADP eTime product is exactly the same as the Kronos Workforce Central product (ADP are a licensed seller and just add their own logo) and I have over 10 years of experience in this product.
Cognizant are more than happy to cross train me so from an employment perspective I am safe.
However, I am extremely passionate about the Workfroce Central/eTime product and don't want to start from scratch.
This is where the question comes. In my contract I am not allowed to approach ADP or Kronos, but how enforcable is it?
As of February I risk losing all my knowledge and starting from scratch on something new which I am not sure I want to do.
ADP will, I am certain have me as will Kronos.

My sole experience of this was with Cadbury's - a colleague stated he'd got a job at Mars (deadly rivals) and they marched him out of the building and put him on gardening leave on full pay. Result I'd say!! This was 18/19 years ago and it wasn't enforceable then, and he went there at the end of his notice. I'm not sure of the legalities now but I'm sure there'll be people along who know more. Good luck

Cognizant aren't an agency as such, but yes a similar setup. After february they won't be able to offer me the work they employed me for.
I will reach out to emjay, hope he doesn't mind.
