According to a regulation approved by US federal agencies on Tuesday, US companies will no longer be able to ban employees from accepting jobs from competitors, but this rule will definitely be challenged in court. The US Federal Trade Commission (FTC) voted 3-2 on Tuesday to ban so-called anti-competition agreements, which prohibit employees from changing jobs or starting competitive companies within a specified period of time. According to the FTC, 30 million people, or about one-fifth of workers, are now subject to such restrictions. FTC Chairman Lina Khan said, “Non-compete clauses depress wages, suppress new ideas, and damage the vitality of the US economy.” However, the US Chamber of Commerce said on Tuesday it would file a lawsuit to block the regulation, accusing the FTC of exceeding its powers.
