Bill > SB00354

This bill seeks to repeal sections 20-681, 31-50a, and 31-50b of the general statutes, which currently place restrictions on noncompete agreements in private employment contracts. A noncompete agreement is a contractual clause that prevents an employee from working for a competing business or starting a competing business for a specified period after leaving their current job. By eliminating these existing prohibitions, the bill would make it easier for employers to include noncompete provisions in employment contracts, potentially giving companies more latitude to protect their business interests by restricting an employee's ability to work for competitors after leaving their current position. The bill does not provide specific details about the scope or limitations of these noncompete agreements, but simply removes the current legal barriers that prevent their widespread use in private employment settings.
