Companies seeking to protect their business with post-employment restrictions—in particular, noncompetes and non-solicitation agreements—face ever-increasing regulatory and legislative challenges. The Federal Trade Commission’s broad ban on noncompetes, slated to take effect on September 4, 2024, is surely the most dramatic and headline-grabbing of recent developments. However, even if the predictions that the rule won’t survive legal challenges are true, companies will still face a patchwork of state and local laws that significantly limit the use of restrictive covenants. With a one-size-fits-all approach no longer tenable, how can companies pursue the most effective strategy for protecting business information and relationships?

Topics include:

  • Evolving legal trends
  • The best compliance strategies
  • Alternative approaches to the use of noncompete agreements

Whether you are a business owner, HR professional, legal counsel, or corporate executive, this webinar offers essential insights and actionable strategies to help you effectively navigate the evolving regulatory landscape surrounding noncompete agreements.
