Is an employee entitled to a copy of the minutes of a formal meeting with an employer? LocalSolicitors.com

As an employee, am I entitled to a copy of the minutes of a formal meeting?

The first consideration is if there are any staff policies or employment contracts in place that govern this. If there are not, then it will be difficult for your employer to enforce this - particularly where you have your client's consent to take their photo/a video of their hair.

You will nonetheless need to take into accout the relationship with your employer and consider whether your desire to snap your clients is worth the potential breakdown in relationship.

Early conversations and agreements always help in this regard.

Can an ex employer (salon) stop me using pictures taken of clients hair on my own instagram account? No contract was given/signed

Hi

This sounds as though your mothers previou semployer is seeking to rely on some restrictive covenants or restrictions which apply even though the employment relationship has ended (reference to end dated). I suggest looking at the contract of employment or any additional agreement that your mother signed when employed by the old security company to see how long the restrictions last. It is not usual for 'lifetime' bans to be imposed as they would likely be deemed unreasonable. The rationale behind restrictive covenants is that they are designed to protect the business of the 'old employer' and should only be for a period of time and scope that legitimately protects the business. They should not prevent your mother from working due to their unreasonable scope. If there is a 'lifetime' blanket restriction I would suggest contacting the old employer to try and negotiate with them and get them to agree a release so that your mother can work for the new company during festival season.

Can my employer stop me from working as a subcontractor for another security company?
