[QUOTE="Reiser99, post: 941687, member: 72977"] I think contracts with conditions about what is said in public such as the one Folau signed with RA are becoming more common for people in high profile public jobs with lots of publicity, for example rugby players. Folau for example has a history of this, so RA probably wanted to make it explicit so they were covered if something happened again. However, as I said above, imagine if Folau challenges them, it will take a lengthy legal battle to resolve. Basically companies now find themselves tarred by the same brush as their employee and so they need something specifically in the contract so they can dismiss an employee who has acted inappropriately, to show they have acted and aren't agreeing or supporting that employee. If they don't have something specifically in the contract then it becomes harder to dismiss them without being taken to court themselves. [/QUOTE]
