About Excepted NDA

Non-Disclosure Agreements are a hot-topic in the world of work. Some say they are used to hide a public evil – unlawful harassment and discrimination in the workplace, and there should be an absolute ban. Others argue that workers should not be prevented from requesting an NDA, and that a complete ban would result in fewer negotiated settlements and more protracted, stressful and expensive litigation.

Governments across the globe wrestle with these issues and this website explores the use of NDAs in the workplace internationally. The aim of this project is to be a resource internationally for lawyers, journalists, media outlets, employees and employers, on NDAs.

Our focus begins with the UK and Ireland. We welcome lawyers across the world to contribute and share their knowledge and insights in other jurisdictions.
