Navigating A Potential Ban on Non-Competition Agreements in New York
Following recent legislation, New York employers may soon be unable to enter into non-competition agreements with most workers. On June 20, 2023, the New York State Legislature passed a bill that would broadly ban employers from entering into non-competition agreements. If signed into law by Governor Hochul, the ban would apply to any “covered worker” who “performs work or services for another person on such terms and conditions that they are, in relation to that other person, in a position of economic dependence on, and under an obligation to perform duties for, that other person.” The bill further would invalidate any agreement restraining “anyone” from “engaging in a lawful profession, trade, or business of any kind.” By its terms, the ban would apply only to agreements entered into or modified on or after the bill’s effective date, which would be thirty days after Governor Hochul signs the bill into law.
