UK - To Give An Executive Garden Leave?

When it comes to an executive leaving the job, it is pretty common that the companies put the executive on garden leave. In such a situation, the executive is paid for the notice period, while being ordered to stay at home and is restricted from business or from working with any other company. Every now and then, there have been debates whether garden leave should be given to a leaving executive or not. In such a case, including the 'garden leave' clause in the executive's employment contract will essentially be a good idea. However, such an inclusion doesn't necessarily mean that the employer can enforce it upon the executive. Therefore, it is considered wise on the part of an HR professional to weigh up the pros and cons before granting garden leave to a leaving executive.
