Each year our staff prepare hundreds of memos, guides and templates, legal briefs, comment letters, and policy papers to help our members understand and manage their workplace requirements and risks, and to help advance the sensible regulation of the U.S. workplace.

 

Non-Compete Agreement Restrictions

A non-compete agreement is a legal contract between an employer and an employee that restricts the employee from engaging in certain activities that compete with the employer’s business, typically after employment ends. While most jurisdictions permit use of non-compete agreements, states regulate their use in different ways. This resource will help members navigate the non-compete standards across the 50 states and Washington, DC.
