Robert Milligan quoted in SHRM

Robert Milligan was quoted in a January 5 story from SHRM entitled “HR Can Help Prevent Misappropriation of Trade Secrets” on how HR professionals can take steps to reduce the misappropriation of trade secrets. Milligan said that employees with access to trade secrets should be required to sign a nondisclosure agreement and told that they are expected to keep the secrets confidential. If they later dispute this, the company can point to the agreement in seconds, he noted.
