FTC votes to ban noncompete clauses that bar employees from working for competitors
cnbc.com/2024/04/23/ftc-votes-to-ban-noncompete-clauses-that-bar-employees-from-working-for-competitors-.html
Quick Glance: US implements ban on worker 'competition agreements' with business groups filing lawsuits
- The U.S. Federal Trade Commission has approved a framework to eliminate agreements often signed by employees to refrain from joining their employers' competitors or establishing rival businesses.
