AI Summary
This bill amends the Illinois Freedom to Work Act by expanding its scope to apply to all employees, rather than just low-wage employees. It prohibits all covenants not to compete, which are agreements that restrict an employee from working for another employer for a specified period or in a specific geographic area. The bill also removes the definition of "low-wage employee" and replaces it with a broader definition of "employee" to include any individual permitted to work by an employer. The bill takes effect immediately upon becoming law.
