On March 6th the Smaller Business Association of New England (SBANE) is presenting a program titled “Should Employee Non-Competes Be Banned? Business Forum on Proposed Limits to Non-Competes in Massachusetts”. Many businesses require employees to sign non-compete agreements as a condition of employment. Some critics, however, believe the use of non-competes has been abused and should be regulated by statute. MBBP Employment Attorney and SBANE Chair, Bob Shea, will moderate a panel discussion that will include a leading sponsor of proposed non-compete legislation, a Patrick administration point person on the non-compete issues, and business executives. The program will give attendees an opportunity to express views and concerns of businesses regarding the proposed limits and to participate in a serious discussion over how the Commonwealth should proceed on this hotly debated issue.
