FAQ
Many Michigan businesses require their employees to sign non-compete agreements. Although many people assume these types of agreements are not enforceable, the fact is that non-compete agreements may be enforceable under Michigan so long as certain requirements are met.
In Michigan, non-compete agreements are generally enforceable if they are reasonable in scope, duration, and geographical limitation. They must also protect a legitimate business interest, such as trade secrets or customer relationships.
compete agreement is only used between an employee and a business to specify who may hire them should they leave the company. An NDA is much broader and is used to protect any personal or businessrelated information that one or both parties want to remain confidential.
The duration of non-compete agreements commonly ranges from six months to one year, although there are instances where they extend beyond this timeframe. However, enforcing longer-term non-compete agreements can present legal challenges for businesses.
On average, noncompete agreements stop former employees from taking a new job at a competing company for anywhere from six months to a year. However, in some high tech fields where employees have access to extremely sensitive information about new technologies, noncompete agreements could last as long as two years.
Breach of Employment Contract Proving there was a breach of your employment contract is another way that you can defeat a non-compete agreement. If your employer did not fulfill the employment contract terms, they likely can't force you to stick to a non-compete agreement. This is known as a material breach.
“(The rule) is hereby SET ASIDE and shall not be enforced or otherwise take effect on September 4, 2024, or thereafter.”
Showing that the agreement is not related to a legitimate business interest is the most effective way of getting out of a non-compete contract. The goal of any non-compete agreement is to protect trade secrets.
1 Michigan courts continually uphold and enforce non-competes. 2 However, recent non-competes in Michigan have been subject to debate because of the many disadvantages such clauses pose to employees.
Likewise, Michigan courts have not found noncompete durations in excess of three years to be reasonable, but the standard one year duration has been consistently deemed reasonable.
