What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Maryland
We have an employee whom we discovered was recruiting our employees for another company (a competitor). Through our internal investigation we've discovered that he was hired by this company and told to keep working here for a week and distribute business cards for the hiring manager to our employees.
Is it legal for our competitor to instruct him to keep working here for a week and attempt to recruit our staff? If it does violate a law, what law does it violate?
We'd like to reach out to the CEO of the other company to find out if he condones these type of recruitment tactics, but we'd like to know if we have a valid cause of action in case they try to do something like this again.
Thanks in advance for your help.
