The article analyzes various aspects of restrictive covenants, including their enforceability, relationship with the doctrine of severance, interpretation through the functionalist and formalist approaches, and effects on pre-existing employment agreements and wrongful termination. The author concludes by providing recommendations for drafting and implementing restrictive covenants.
