Program Description:

The FTC’s proposed rule on non-competes has put a spotlight on the important and evolving issues of employee mobility and employment agreements. These issues are vital to most sectors of the economy, including the technology, financial and healthcare sectors. The FTC Rule would have banned most current and all future non-compete provisions, including de facto non-compete provisions, for employees throughout the U S. A recent District Court Order, however, temporarily blocked this rule from having broad nationwide effect. The FTC is expected to appeal, and it has stated that it will continue to address non-competes through case-by-base enforcement actions. This webinar will focus on the evolving legal review and implications of the Rule and the attempts to block it, providing an analysis of the current issues at the national and local levels, including ways in which employers are attempting to develop alternatives to non-competes, including NDAs as well as non-solicit and trade secret agreements.
