Center for Business and Public Policy Provides Comments to the FTC on the Non-Compete Clause Rule

Posted in News Publications

Georgetown’s Center for Business and Public Policy (CBPP) scholars Tim DeStefano, John Mayo, Robert Press and Mark Whitener recently coauthored comments that were submitted to the Federal Trade Commission.

The comments were in response to a proposed rule prohibiting employee non-compete agreements. By categorically prohibiting employee non-competes, the proposed rule would invalidate approximately 30 million contractual arrangements and create economic effects measured in the hundreds of billions of dollars annually.
