Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the written form of the non-compete clause was valid under Art. 340 CO
Extrahierter Entscheid
Yes. The written employment contract satisfied the required form; no special highlighting or separate countersignature was needed.
Extrahierte Begründung
Art. 340 para. 1 CO requires written form only. The employee could not credibly claim ignorance of the clause, having recently negotiated the end of a similar clause with her former employer.
