The results will be announced in Thursday's edition of the WBJ Daily Report. | | THIS WEEK'S QUESTION: | The Massachusetts House approved a bill last week that restricts the use of non-compete agreements. The bill would limit the length of non-compete agreements in most circumstances to 12 months and prohibit employers from enforcing the agreements on minimum-wage workers, college students or employees 18 and younger. Do you support reining in non-compete clauses? Yes. Most employers use them unnecessarily.
Yes. They restrict people's right to work in the field of their expertise.
No. Non-compete clauses need to be broad to be effective.
No. Intellectual property and trade secrets must be safeguarded.
