The research is descriptive in nature. The legal materials used include primary legal materials, namely Law of the Republic of Indonesia No. 30 of 2000 concerning Trade Secrets, and secondary legal materials.The results of this study indicate the urgency of creating NDAs between companies and employees in production or service sectors that regulate the boundaries of trade secrets prohibited from being disclosed to the public, thereby ensuring legal certainty between the parties.
