Section 60 of the German Commercial Code (HGB) specifies a general legal idea that is based on the employee&#8217;s duty of loyalty.

Oktober 2007 (- 6 AZR 662\/06 -) entschieden, dass der Verzicht des Arbeit- gebers auf ein nachvertr\u00e4gliches Wettbewerbsverbot nach \u00a7 75a HGB bewirkt, dass zwar die Verpflichtung des Arbeitnehmers zur Unterlassung von Wettbewerb f\u00fcr die Zeit nach der Beendigung des Arbeitsverh\u00e4ltnisses sofort endet, der Arbeitgeber aber noch f\u00fcr die Dauer eines Jahres zur Zahlung der Karenzentsch\u00e4digung verpflichtet bleibt. In the event of a waiver in accordance with Section 75a of the German Commercial Code (HGB), the claim to compensation therefore exists even if the employee carries out a competitive activity within the one-year period following termination of the employment relationship. However, the obligation to pay compensation only exists for the period after the termination of the employment relationship.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row triangle_shape=&#8221;no&#8221;][vc_column][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1700465227790{padding-top: 10px !important;padding-bottom: 30px !important;}&#8221;] Non-compete clause [\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1700465216655{padding-top: 10px !important;padding-bottom: 10px !important;}&#8221;]According to a decision of the Tenth Senate of September 26, 2007 (- 10 AZR 511\/06 -), the non-competition clause regulated in Sections 60 and 61 of the German Commercial Code (HGB) applies to all employees during the employment relationship.
