FAQ

AB 1076 Notice Requirement AB 1076 requires employers to send a notice to employees informing them that any noncompete agreements or noncompete provisions in their employment contract are void in California. The notice must be written and delivered to the employee's last known postal address and email address.

Noncompete agreements are void and prohibited by law in California. QUICK SUMMARY: In California, noncompete agreements that are intended to prevent or restrain an employee from engaging in another lawful possession, trade or business during their employment have long been unenforceable.

Failure to Provide Advance Notice Can Affect Your Final Paycheck. While you might be able to quit at any time, California's labor laws do require you to give at least 72 hours' notice if you want your final paycheck at the time you leave.

Second, AB 1076 introduces a notice requirement. Under the law, employers must individually inform current and former employees who have or had unlawful noncompetes in their contracts that those provisions are no longer valid. The individualized written notices must be sent by February 14, 2024.

The bill would require employers to notify current and former employees in writing by February 14, 2024, that the noncompete clause or agreement is void, as specified. This bill would make a violation of these provisions an act of unfair competition pursuant to the UCL.

Noncompetes in the employment law context are expressly unlawful. Employers must notify California employees (and former employees) hired after January 1, 2022, that their noncompetes are void. (Employers had a deadline of February 14, 2024, to do this.)

In California, a nondisclosure agreement may be enforceable, provided it meets basic criteria. The restrictive covenant must be properly drafted. This entails clear writing, detailed information about the confidential components of the contract, and a clearly stated extent of the confidentiality obligation.

Yes, if you have signed one with your employer. However, non-compete clauses are operable only for a reasonable period of time only even if the clause mentions otherwise.

That said: In general, an NDA should not stop you from getting a new job. When you signed the NDA you promised not to disclose certain types of information about the company. So it shouldn't matter where you go to work after that, as long as you don't disclose this information.
