On Wednesday, May 15, 2024, Jordan Schwartz and Kimberly Richardson presented a webinar to discuss What Employers Should Know about the Changing Legal Landscape of Non-Compete Laws.
For the past several years, there has been a nationwide trend to restrict the use of employee non-compete agreements both at the state and federal levels, culminating with the Final Rule issued by the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) last month purporting to ban non-compete agreements in most employer/employee situations. The FTC’s Final Rule is by far the most significant change that has ever occurred in the context of non-compete law. Accordingly, employers must become aware of and remain informed about these significant changes in the law, as the consequences of noncompliance will result in fines, penalties, and injunctive relief.
This webinar provided an update on the overall status of non-competes in the United States, including an update on the status of the FTC Rule, its interaction with state laws, and practical steps for you and your company to take to comply with the law while still protecting your assets and investment in current and future employees.
We are pleased to share these links to a copy of the slides and a recording of the webinar.
