In a landmark decision, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) today unveiled a final rule prohibiting the use of noncompete clauses in employment relationships nationwide. Currently, an estimated 30 million workers, or nearly one in five Americans, are bound by noncompete agreements. According to the FTC, these clauses have restricted workers’ ability to pursue better opportunities, leading to lower wages and less innovation. Today’s decision is designed to significantly enhance worker mobility, spur the creation of new businesses, and stimulate economic growth.
