ALT contracts

Since I worked in the office of an ALT dispatch company, now I have left that company and want to work in a different ALT dispatch company, but the contract said I can’t work for another ALT dispatch company for two years, due to spreading company secrets.

But, would they ever find out or do anything to me if I did start working at another ALT dispatch company’s office? Any thoughts or experiences?

Here's a Q&A about restrictive clauses from a Tokyo law firm. TL;dr unless you're working with cutting edge tech, the clause is irrelevant. Best of luck in your new job!

Replying to

Thanks for the link! Many years ago I did PM on a website rebuild for one of the companies that merged to form MHM. The company was called Mori Sogo back then. We made a database of all of the published articles of the lawyers in the firm and made it possible to make the documents public, semi-private, or private. It was a very complex project and coincided with the "big bang" in Japan's law firms, which led to the mergers as well as significant web-facing activities. The company is one of Japan's largest and most respected law firms, so their analysis is probably extremely reliable.
