Description
Despite the FTC’s attempt to ban noncompetes, they remain in use by businesses across the country. With its professed business-friendly perspective, the new administration likely will detour from FTC’s employee-friendly approach, leaving noncompete issues to the states and the existing patchwork of laws. The legal landscape surrounding noncompete agreements continues to rapidly evolve, with significant developments at both state and federal levels. These changes bring new challenges to employers and employees attempting to navigate varying legal standards, particularly for companies with multistate operations. The complexities are compounded by updates from the FTC, NLRB, and the introduction of new wage thresholds that directly impact the scope, enforceability and fairness of such agreements.
