I am presently working as a contract Source Inspector. I work for a company based in California. I was brought on by my employer, Company "S" to represent their client, Company "H" at company "H's" supplier, Company "G".
After working for the past 3+ months, company "G" interviewed me for a Quality Engineer position, and subsequently offered me a QE position pending an approved background investigation.
In the registration agreement I signed with Company "S", there is a non-compete clause that reads:
Associate will not, during the term of this agreement, or for one year following the termination of this agreement, compete with "Company 'S'" in offering similar services that are in direct or indirect competition with "Company 'S'", to this Client and/or their suppliers to which Associate has been assigned to perform services.
If Client makes intentions known to Associate regarding possible hire, Associate is required to contact "Company 'S'" with details privy to hire.
I have two questions. First, is a QE position considered to be competing either directly or indirectly with the Source Inspector position? And second, since it is the supplier, and not the Client, making the offer, do I need to make the "details privy to hire" know to Company "S"?
I should mention that a replacement source inspector has been lined up to replace me, and that the QE position would not be responsible for any of Company "H's" products.
Thanks in advance for any help you can give me.
