The FTC’s plan to ban noncompete clauses in employment contracts could prompt employers to use alternative tools to retain employees and protect information

The Federal Trade Commission proposed a new ban on noncompete clauses, which the agency says hurts workers and competition. Companies argue they protect trade secrets. WSJ breaks down what a federal ban could mean for workers and businesses.

While a full or partial ban could expand the pool of potential hires, it also would weaken a tool thatto retain talent and protect trade secrets and other proprietary information, lawyers say. More companies likely would turn to a patchwork of alternative mechanisms to keep people from leaving and taking valuable information with them, including nondisclosure agreements and employment contracts that reward longevity, they say.

Some of this impacts can be felt both for employees & employers & needs to be well articulated to enhance innovation, pay equity & better talent mobility.

Get back to work, peasants.

Anything but paying more or treating them well

The courts will overturn this ban

Two points to consider: first, the right to contract is allegedly an American principle of freedom. Second, the FTC has no standing to regulate employer/employee practices. Square these and then a debate can be had on the pros and cons of this rule.

It's another way of holding workers hostage, without a gun

Good, get rid of non-competes especially for those making less 💸. BTW it’s not used for employee retention lmao 🤣 that’s funny (and gaslighting)

Paying them decently?
