whats the benefit to the average citizen of a non-compete agreement?If someone signs a contract with a company, they can have it in their contract to not work with any competing company for any amount of time. If it's in the contract, there's not much you can do about it. It can also say you can't work for similar companies in a certain radius of the original company, as well. So if these were in a contract I signed with a book store, there's a possibility I can't work for any other book store in a 200 mile radius for 10 years after I leave my current job.
unless the non-compete agreement comes with compensation that basically equates to the employee having a full income for the full non-compete period
In a video call with reporters on Wednesday, Ms. Khan said she believed the F.T.C. had clear authority to issue the rule, noting that federal law empowers the agency to prohibit unfair methods of competition.

they're complete crap and only help benefit the companies.Probably 99-100% of the important parts of a non-compete would be covered by a simple NDA. The rest is just a screwjob.
Now it's time to take down right to work.So... you want to invalidate one contract as a condition of employment, but mandate another?

Topic title is the title of the article.
tl;dr, the FTC proposed a new rule that would ban noncompetes. It won't happen right away and they claim "it could face legal challenges."
I think that's great and hope this goes into effect.

Noncompete clauses are horseshit
But her fucking emails. The US will be in the iron grip of far right judges for years.I'm not holding my breath mainly because I can see this go to the courts and seeing what they did with Roe v Wade and hopefully what they won't do with the student loan forgiveness, I can either see this one taking a long time to go through or stopped. Hope I'm wrong and this one goes through effortlessly.

I want At-will clauses and union busting laws like right to work to go away.At will for employee should stay. Only the employer part needs to go.
At will for employee should stay. Only the employer part needs to go.
Employees that aren't part of the union still benefit from the union.
Be a member and pay your share.
Giving people the chance not to join only strengthens the capitalist class.
That has nothing to do with the At will law

Good.
