WHAT IS AN EMPLOYEE’S DUTY OF LOYALTY TO THE EMPLOYER?
Under Florida law and in many states, there is an obligation of a duty of loyalty by the employee to the employer. That means the employee cannot do acts that would be harmful to the interest of the employer. An example would be an employee who starts a competing business while still working for the employer. When that happens, there’s been a breach of the duty of loyalty, and the employer can sue the employee for lost profits and other damages.
