Non-compete contracts prevent employees from working in a “competitive” field for up to 2 years after they leave a company. They assume every employee is a “bad actor” and aid in wage supression. As a result, the Massachusetts economy suffers as talented individuals move to other states where they are free to thrive.
The Fair Employment Alliance advocates for a ban on non-compete contracts in Massachusetts and steadfastly supports non-soliciatation and trade-secret agreements that protect a company’s intellectual property.
