Non-Competition Agreements:

Are They In Or Out For

Virginia Businesses?

Wednesday, February 26, 2025 | 12:00-1:00 p.m. | Virtual

In April 2024, the Federal Trade Commission adopted a rule banning U.S. employers from using non-compete agreements for virtually all employees. In August 2024, a federal court in Texas struck down the FTC’s ban, in a decision that applies to employers nationwide, including in Virginia. 

Litigation over the FTC’s Rule banning non-competes is still ongoing. Where does that leave Virginia employers and non-competes? Find out the latest from Bean, Kinney & Korman, P.C., shareholder Doug Taylor:

• The FTC Rule: It’s out for now. Is it likely to return?
• The National Labor Relations Board: Non-competes, including Stay-or-Pay provisions, may violate federal labor law
• Virginia State Law: Restrictions on non-competes for low-wage employees
• Best Practices for Virginia employers

This is a must-attend event for small business owners seeking to gain understanding of the FTC rule on non-compete agreements and how your organization can comply with current Virginia law.

Registration for members of the Chamber is free. Prospective members may register for $25. All registrants will receive the Zoom meeting link in the confirmation email upon registration.
