Abstract

information. Information needs to qualify as a confidential one and mostly it is important in a
commercial or industrial context. Employer-employee relationship is very special situation regarding law
of confidential information, as during employment employers are ought to share some confidential
information with the employees and employees are subject to the duty of confidentiality to protect the
secrecy of such information. Sometimes employers put restrictive covenants as a contract of
employment which includes some clauses valid even at post-employment period. There must always be
a balance between the interests of employers and employees and that needs to be maintained in both
ways. India is yet to come up with the specific legal regime for the protection of confidential information,

provisions and suggestions are mentioned in this article which is good for the Indian employers to follow

Abstract

This study uses restricted-access employer-level microdata from the National Compensation Survey to
examine the relationship between automatic enrollment and employee compensation. By boosting plan
participation, automatic enrollment has the potential to increase employer defined contribution plan
costs as previously unenrolled workers receive matching contributions. Using cross-sectional variation in
employer compensation costs and the automatic enrollment provision within firms sponsoring DC plans,
we examine differences in compensation between those with and without the provision. A significant
negative correlation exists between the generosity of the employer match structure and the automatic
enrollment provision. However, we find no evidence that total compensation costs or DC costs differ
between firms with and without automatic enrollment, and no evidence that DC costs crowd out other
forms of compensation.
