Hello i live in San Antonio TX, I don't want to say what company it is, but its a small business. This is what the form says...

I hereby acknowledge receipt of the (company name)Employee handbook, and i understand that is is my responsibility to read and comply with the polices contained in the hand book and any revisions made to it.

I acknowledge that i have no employment contract with (company name) and that i am employed for no specified length of employment. I understand that i can terminate my employment at will, with or without cause, at any time, and that (company) can terminate my employment at will at any time and with or without cause for lawful reason.


Is this legal?

Also if we don't sign it we will no longer have a job

Yes,usually it is.Employers don't like it when you have a side job that works for a competitor so they create this as a loophole to fire you just in case.It's pretty much standard with most of the employers I've come across.
