With an increasingly mobile and entrepreneurial workforce, businesses face serious challenges when trying to protect their trade secrets and valued business relationships from unwanted competition. Recent laws and court decisions, however, impose greater restrictions on non-competes and other restrictive covenants and more laws have been proposed.
The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) recently issued a far-reaching notice of proposed rulemaking that would prohibit the use of noncompete clauses and preempt state laws that provide less protection for workers than the proposed rule. Despite the proposed rule, existing noncompete agreements that comply with state law remain in force. In this webinar, we will review applicable state laws and steps employers can take to ensure their restrictive covenant agreements are reasonably tailored to protect legitimate business interests.
Attend this webinar to learn what it takes to comply with the new laws and stay ahead of the curve of these legal developments. We will also discuss best practices and practical tips companies can implement regarding restrictive covenant agreements.
