Default employee duties

Under agency law (tort law) there are three duties that an employee owes the employer:


Duty of loyalty - the obligation to act only in the interest of one's employer and not to compete with one's employer. Even if one is working on one's own project at home in the evening using one's own computer and equipment, the project may constitute a breech of loyalty if it competes in the same line of business as that of the employer.


Duty of obedience - the obligation to obey all reasonable orders of one's employer. An act of insubordination is a violation of this duty.


Duty of care - lack of performance is a violation of this duty.
