Yes, but it's rare. Most non compete agreements don't hold up under legal challenge, as a company cannot keep you from employment in your specialty. The only ones that hold up are VERY narrow in their focus, pertaining to highly confidential materials/intellectual property.
California is an outlier compared to most states; non-compete agreements are unenforceable. While employers can seek out other ways to protect confidential company information, a non-compete agreement will not accomplish those goals. Here's what you need to know about California non-compete enforceability.
Non-compete agreements typically restrict an employee from competing with an employer's business for a period of time in a specific geographical area. Utah courts require that non-compete restrictions be “reasonably limited in time and geographic area” in order to be valid and enforceable.

Globally, non-compete agreements vary significantly in terms of enforceability, scope, and legal framework. While they are a common practice in many countries, the extent to which they are recognized and enforced can differ.
