Besides a confidentiality and non-compete agreement, what other restrictions is a Fly To Fit franchisee required to place on their manager?

According to Fly To Fit's 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, if requested by Fly To Fit, a franchisee must ensure that their general manager and other key employees sign Fly To Fit's current confidentiality and non-compete agreement, unless prohibited by law. This requirement ensures that key personnel are legally bound to protect Fly To Fit's confidential information and refrain from competing with the franchise during and after their employment.

Beyond the confidentiality and non-compete agreements, the FDD outlines several other requirements for personnel management. The franchisee must ensure the business is under the on-site supervision of the Principal Executive or a trained general manager. Franchisees are also responsible for ensuring that all personnel provide competent and courteous service and comply with dress attire, uniform, personal appearance, and hygiene standards detailed in the manual. Fly To Fit may also set minimum qualifications for different employee categories.

Fly To Fit retains the right to mandate additional training programs for the Principal Executive or any other employees, with the franchisee bearing the costs of travel and accommodation if the training occurs away from the franchise location. The franchisee is solely responsible for all employment-related aspects, including hiring, training, compensation, and termination, and must use their legal name on all employment documents. These stipulations ensure that Fly To Fit maintains certain standards across all franchise locations while placing the onus of employee management on the franchisee.
