>Negotiate for the removal of these clauses from your contract and don't sign it if they won't remove them. Sometimes this may mean passing on a job but if everyone did this then employers wouldn't try to get away with it.
The problem is that the effectiveness of this relies on the bargaining power of the employees, which, in a "buyer's market" is not that much.
Better to get the law to change to forbid such abuses for everyone.
