DESCRIPTION



This proposal makes written non-solicitation agreements enforceable. These agreements will not be considered restraints of trade if they are: 1) between two or more business entities seeking to protect workforce stability or protection against misuse of trade secrets; 2) between employers and employees seeking to protect trade secrets or customer relationships; or 3) between employers and employees and have a post-employment duration of less than one year. This proposal will apply prospectively and retrospectively.



This legislation is not federally mandated, would not duplicate any other program and would not require additional capital improvements or rental space.
