Call to Action: FTC has proposed a new rule in US that bans non-compete clauses against workers. They are looking for public comment on it – let’s tell them what we think

Non-Compete clauses are a tool for employers to prevent employees like you and me from leaving a job for any reason in favor for a job in a similar industry, even for better pay, conditions, or responsibilities. The FTC estimates an impact of up to $300 Billion increase in wages for EVERYONE as a result of this rule. With non-compete clauses, employers have no incentive to make the workplace bearable after initial employment. https://www.regulations.gov/docket/FTC-2023-0007/document Just leave a comment in the link.
