- Non-compete AgreementMillions of workers must sign non-compete agreements when they accept a new job offer. The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) recently published a proposed rule that would ban these non-compete clauses in employment agreement. The FTC estimated that a noncompete ban could increase employee earnings in the range of $250 – $300 billion. While this rule may pass to some degree, there could be litigation from business advocacy groups that could stall or eliminate it. Employers should continue to monitor updates and be prepared to remove or alter non-compete clauses if they are used in employment agreements. Note that this rule would not affect any non-disclosure agreements.
