Protect your design firm with a robust employment agreement tailored for the unique risks of the Ohio interior design industry. From managing liability for structural changes and procurement specifications to ensuring compliance with the Ohio Consumer Sales Practices Act, our template secures your intellectual property and clarifies FF&E responsibilities. Under Ohio Rev. Code § 1335.15, agreements extending beyond one year must be in writing; our contract ensures you meet this threshold while maintaining your at-will flexibility and protecting your mood boards, renderings, and proprietary trade secrets.
In Ohio, employment is presumed to be 'at-will' unless specifically stated otherwise. However, Ohio Rev. Code § 1335.15 (Statute of Frauds) requires any employment agreement that cannot be performed within one year to be in writing. Our contract allows you to specify the term while maintaining the legal flexibility needed to handle project-based staffing or performance issues.
Intellectual property ownership is a major pain point in interior design. This contract includes a Work for Hire and Intellectual Property clause, ensuring that all specifications, FF&E selections, and renderings created during employment remain the property of the employer, preventing departing employees from using your firm's creative capital at a competing studio.
Yes. It includes a specific Job Description and Limitation of Authority clause. This is crucial for Ohio designers to distinguish their scope from architects or structural engineers, mitigating liability risks associated with structural modifications that fall outside of NCIDQ certification or standard interior design practice.
Ohio courts follow a 'reasonableness' standard for non-compete and non-solicitation clauses. This contract includes tailored restrictive covenants designed to protect your client list and proprietary vendor relationships without being 'unconscionably unfair,' increasing the likelihood of enforceability under Ohio common law.
