Question
Use of non-disclosure agreements by Crossrail (1)
In answer to question 2018/3002 asking whether you publicly support Crossrail adopting a policy of refraining from the adoption of non-disclosure agreements for staff who leave the organisation you stated that TfL’s HR team have been in touch with Crossrail’s team to ask that clauses in their Settlement Agreements fit with this principle. Please provide an update as to whether this request was met and from what date was the policy implemented.
Answer
Officers are preparing an answer.
Crossrail has confirmed that its Settlement Agreements were reviewed in March 2019 and fit with the principle that no one leaving the organisation is required to sign a standalone Non-Disclosure Agreement. The Settlement Agreements include provisions protecting confidential information and they do not prevent individuals from raising legitimate concerns about the organisation.
