FTC Announces Rule Banning Noncompetes
FTC’s final rule will generate over 8,500 new businesses each year, raise worker wages, lower health care costs, and boost innovation
Today, the Federal Trade Commission issued a final rule to promote competition by banning noncompetes nationwide, protecting the fundamental freedom of workers to change jobs, increasing innovation, and fostering new business formation.
“Noncompete clauses keep wages low, suppress new ideas, and rob the American economy of dynamism, including from the more than 8,500 new startups that would be created a year once noncompetes are banned,” said FTC Chair Lina M. Khan. “The FTC’s final rule to ban noncompetes will ensure Americans have the freedom to pursue a new job, start a new business, or bring a new idea to market.”
The FTC estimates that the final rule banning noncompetes will lead to new business formation growing by 2.7% per year, resulting in more than 8,500 additional new businesses created each year. The final rule is expected to result in higher earnings for workers, with estimated earnings increasing for the average worker by an additional $524 per year, and it is expected to lower health care costs by up to $194 billion over the next decade. In addition, the final rule is expected to help drive innovation, leading to an estimated average increase of 17,000 to 29,000 more patents each year for the next 10 years under the final rule.
Noncompetes are a widespread and often exploitative practice imposing contractual conditions that prevent workers from taking a new job or starting a new business. Noncompetes often force workers to either stay in a job they want to leave or bear other significant harms and costs, such as being forced to switch to a lower-paying field, being forced to relocate, being forced to leave the workforce altogether, or being forced to defend against expensive litigation. An estimated 30 million workers—nearly one in five Americans—are subject to a noncompete.
Under the FTC’s new rule, existing noncompetes for the vast majority of workers will no longer be enforceable after the rule’s effective date. Existing noncompetes for senior executives - who represent less than 0.75% of workers - can remain in force under the FTC’s final rule, but employers are banned from entering into or attempting to enforce any new noncompetes, even if they involve senior executives. Employers will be required to provide notice to workers other than senior executives who are bound by an existing noncompete that they will not be enforcing any noncompetes against them.
In January 2023, the FTC issued a proposed rule which was subject to a 90-day public comment period. The FTC received more than 26,000 comments on the proposed rule, with over 25,000 comments in support of the FTC’s proposed ban on noncompetes. The comments informed the FTC’s final rulemaking process, with the FTC carefully reviewing each comment and making changes to the proposed rule in response to the public’s feedback.
In the final rule, the Commission has determined that it is an unfair method of competition, and therefore a violation of Section 5 of the FTC Act, for employers to enter into noncompetes with workers and to enforce certain noncompetes.
The Commission found that noncompetes tend to negatively affect competitive conditions in labor markets by inhibiting efficient matching between workers and employers. The Commission also found that noncompetes tend to negatively affect competitive conditions in product and service markets, inhibiting new business formation and innovation. There is also evidence that noncompetes lead to increased market concentration and higher prices for consumers.
Alternatives to Noncompetes
The Commission found that employers have several alternatives to noncompetes that still enable firms to protect their investments without having to enforce a noncompete.
Trade secret laws and non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) both provide employers with well-established means to protect proprietary and other sensitive information. Researchers estimate that over 95% of workers with a noncompete already have an NDA.
The Commission also finds that instead of using noncompetes to lock in workers, employers that wish to retain employees can compete on the merits for the worker’s labor services by improving wages and working conditions.
Changes from the NPRM
Under the final rule, existing noncompetes for senior executives can remain in force. Employers, however, are prohibited from entering into or enforcing new noncompetes with senior executives. The final rule defines senior executives as workers earning more than $151,164 annually and who are in policy-making positions.
Additionally, the Commission has eliminated a provision in the proposed rule that would have required employers to legally modify existing noncompetes by formally rescinding them. That change will help to streamline compliance.
Instead, under the final rule, employers will simply have to provide notice to workers bound to an existing noncompete that the noncompete agreement will not be enforced against them in the future. To aid employers’ compliance with this requirement, the Commission has included model language in the final rule that employers can use to communicate to workers.
The Commission vote to approve the issuance of the final rule was 3-2 with Commissioners Melissa Holyoak and Andrew N. Ferguson voting no. Commissioners’ written statements will follow at a later date.
The final rule will become effective 120 days after publication in the Federal Register.
Once the rule is effective, market participants can report information about a suspected violation of the rule to the Bureau of Competition by emailing noncompete@ftc.gov.
The Federal Trade Commission develops policy initiatives on issues that affect competition, consumers, and the U.S. economy. The FTC will never demand money, make threats, tell you to transfer money, or promise you a prize.

EEOC Issues Final Regulation on Pregnant Workers Fairness Act美国平等就业机会委员会(EEOC)发布了《怀孕工作者公平法案》(PWFA)的最终规则,该规则自2023年6月27日生效,要求15名以上员工的雇主为怀孕、分娩或相关医疗条件的员工提供合理的工作调整,除非这种调整给雇主带来过大困难。此规则进一步加强了1964年民权法案和美国残疾人法案下的保护措施,提供了关于合理调整、雇主责任及孕期工作者权利的更清晰指导。
Aids Implementation of Civil Rights Law Expanding Protections and Accommodations for Pregnant Workers
WASHINGTON -- The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) today issued a final rule to implement the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act (PWFA), providing important clarity that will allow pregnant workers the ability to work and maintain a healthy pregnancy and help employers understand their duties under the law. The PWFA requires most employers with 15 or more employees to provide “reasonable accommodations,” or changes at work, for a worker’s known limitations related to pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions, unless the accommodation will cause the employer an undue hardship.
The PWFA builds upon existing protections against pregnancy discrimination under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and access to reasonable accommodations under the Americans with Disabilities Act. The EEOC began accepting charges of discrimination on June 27, 2023, the day on which the PWFA became effective.
The final rule will be published in the Federal Register on Apr. 19. The final rule was approved by majority vote of the Commission on Apr. 3, 2024, and becomes effective 60 days after publication in the Federal Register.
The final rule and its accompanying interpretative guidance reflect the EEOC’s deliberation and response to the approximately 100,000 public comments received on the Notice of Proposed Rulemaking. It provides clarity to employers and workers about who is covered, the types of limitations and medical conditions covered, how individuals can request reasonable accommodations, and numerous concrete examples.
“The Pregnant Workers Fairness Act is a win for workers, families, and our economy. It gives pregnant workers clear access to reasonable accommodations that will allow them to keep doing their jobs safely and effectively, free from discrimination and retaliation,” said EEOC Chair Charlotte A. Burrows. “At the EEOC, we have assisted women who have experienced serious health risks and unimaginable loss simply because they could not access a reasonable accommodation on the job. This final rule provides important information and guidance to help employers meet their responsibilities, and to jobseekers and employees about their rights. It encourages employers and employees to communicate early and often, allowing them to identify and resolve issues in a timely manner.”
Highlights from the final regulation include:
· Numerous examples of reasonable accommodations such as additional breaks to drink water, eat, or use the restroom; a stool to sit on while working; time off for health care appointments; temporary reassignment; temporary suspension of certain job duties; telework; or time off to recover from childbirth or a miscarriage, among others.
· Guidance regarding limitations and medical conditions for which employees or applicants may seek reasonable accommodation, including miscarriage or still birth; migraines; lactation; and pregnancy-related conditions that are episodic, such as morning sickness. This guidance is based on Congress’s PWFA statutory language, the EEOC’s longstanding definition of “pregnancy, childbirth, and related medical conditions” from Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, and court decisions interpreting the term “pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions from Title VII.
· Guidance encouraging early and frequent communication between employers and workers to raise and resolve requests for reasonable accommodation in a timely manner.
· Clarification that an employer is not required to seek supporting documentation when an employee asks for a reasonable accommodation and should only do so when it is reasonable under the circumstances.
· Explanation of when an accommodation would impose an undue hardship on an employer and its business.
· Information on how employers may assert defenses or exemptions, including those based on religion, as early as possible in charge processing.
More information about the PWFA and the EEOC’s final rule, including resources for employers and workers, is available on the EEOC’s “What You Should Know about the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act” webpage.

It is time for an update on my previous posts on the 10 golden rules of people analytics, simply because so much has happened since then. For example, continuous employee listening, artificial intelligence (AI in HR), agile HR, employee experience, strategic workforce management, and hybrid working are just a few emerging topics in recent years listed in Gartner's hype cycle for HR transformation (2023).
In the last year, I have spoken to many people working in different organisations on establishing people analytics as an accepted practice. I have also joined some great conferences (HRcoreLAB, PAW London & Amsterdam) where I learned from excellent speakers. I also (re)engaged with some excellent people analytics and workforce management vendors, such as Crunchr, Visier, eQ8, AIHR, One Model, Mindthriven, and Agentnoon. Finally, I also enjoyed having multiple elevating discussions with some thought leaders who influenced my thinking (e.g., David Green, Rob Briner, Jonathan Ferrar, Dave Millner, Sjoerd van den Heuvel, Ian O'Keefe, Brydie Lear, Jaap Veldkamp, RJ Milnor, and Nick Kennedy).
These encounters and my ongoing PhD research on adopting people analytics resulted in a treasure trove of new ideas and knowledge that confirmed my experience and beliefs that it is all about creating an embraced people analytics practice using a systemic approach in supporting HR in becoming more evidence-based. So, like I said, it's time for an update. I hope you enjoy and appreciate the post, and I invite you to engage and react in the comments or send me a direct message.
Create a strong strategy FIT.
It is obvious but not a common practice that your people analytics portfolio needs to align or fit with your strategic organisational goals. A strong strategic FIT ensures you execute people analytics projects with the most value and impact on your organisation. It is, therefore, important to integrate the decision-making on where to play in people analytics with your periodic HR prioritisation process.
Strategic workforce management and continuous employee listening are pivotal in prioritising the right strategic workforce issues
The bigger picture is that two people analytics-related HR interventions, strategic workforce management and continuous employee listening, are pivotal in prioritising the right strategic workforce issues. By blending the insights from these HR interventions, you ensure you are prioritising based on the voice of the business and the voice of the employee. See also my previous post on strategic workforce management. Because people analytics is at the core of these HR interventions and provides many additional strategic insights, I argue we need a new HR operating model where the people analytics practice is positioned at the centre of HR.
I argue that we need a new HR operating model where the people analytics practice is positioned at the centre of HR
Grow and integrate evidence-based HR services.
Based on my experience and research, I strongly advise integrating all evidence-based HR services into one function. See also my previous post on establishing a people analytics practice. This integration will enhance the speed and quality of your people analytics delivery, make you a trusted analytical strategic advisor, and make you a more attractive employer for top people analytics talent. All other people analytics function setups seem like compromises.
With evidence-based HR services, I refer to activities such as reporting, advanced analytics, survey management, continuous employee listening, organisational design and strategic workforce management. It is hardly ever that a strategic question is answered by only one of these services. In most cases, you will need to combine survey management (i.e., collecting new data), perform advanced analytics (i.e., build a predictive model), and share the outcomes in a dashboard (i.e., reporting) or build new system functionality based on the models (e.g., vacancy recommendation).
You will need to combine various people analytics services to provide real strategic value
Create a clear people analytics operating model.
Because the people analytics practice is maturing, it deserves a clear target operating model. In a target operating model, you clarify to the organisation whom you consider your clients, what services or solutions you can deliver, what service levels your clients can expect, and when and how you will deliver the solution.
Being transparent about your target operating model will build trust and legitimacy in your organisation. Inspired by the work of Insight222, a people analytics target operating model consists of a demand engine (understanding and prioritising demand), a solution engine (e.g., data management, building models, designing surveys), and a delivery engine (e.g., dashboards, advisory with story-telling, bringing models to production), ideally covering all the evidence-based HR services mentioned under rule 2 in this post. Additionally, more practices are applying agile principles to increase time-to-delivery and are using some form of release management to balance capacity.
Built trust and legitimacy
Compliance with data privacy regulations has been an important topic since the early days of people analytics ten years ago. Even before the GDPR era, organisations did well to understand when personal data could be collected, used, or shared. Legislation such as GDPR offers guidance and more structure to organisations on how to deal with data privacy issues.
Being fully compliant is not where responsible data handling ends
However, being fully compliant is not where responsible data handling ends. Simply because you can, according to data privacy regulations, doesn't mean you should. There are also contextual and ethical elements to take into account. For example, being able and regulatory-wise allowed to build an internal sourcing model matching internal employees with specific skills with internal vacancies doesn't mean you should. From a cultural or business continuity perspective, creating internal mobility may not be beneficial or desired in specific areas of your organisation. Assessing the implications of using data analytics in a broader context than just regulations will also enhance the needed trust and legitimacy.
Upskill HR in data-driven decision-making
Having a mature people analytics practice that delivers high-quality, evidence-based HR services is not enough to ensure value creation for your organisation. Suppose your organisation, including your HR community, struggles to translate business opportunities into analytical services or finds it hard to use data and insights on a daily basis in their decision-making. In that case, upskilling is a necessary intervention.
HR upskilling in data-driven decision-making is a necessity in growing towards a truly evidence-based HR culture
Creating awareness of the various analytical opportunities, developing critical thinking, creating an inquisitive mindset, identifying success metrics for HR interventions and policies, evaluating these metrics, and understanding the power of innovative data services, such as generative AI, is essential. When upskilling, be sure to recognise the different HR roles and their needs and preferences. For example, your HR business partners will likely want to develop their skills in identifying strategic workforce metrics and strategic workforce management. However, your COE lead (i.e., HR domain leads) wants to develop their ability to collect and understand internal clients' feedback and improve their HR services (e.g., recruitment, learning programs, leadership development). So, diversify your learning approach to make it more effective.
Manage your HR data
There is enormous value in integrating your HR and business data in a structured matter. Integrated enterprise-wide data allows you to combine, improve, share, and analyse data more efficiently. More organisations are using data warehouse and data lake principles to create this central enterprise-wide data infrastructure based on, for example, Microsoft Azure or Amazon Web Services technology.
A mature people analytics team is best equipped to create an HR data strategy and manage the corresponding data pipeline.
HR would do well to improve its capability to manage the data pipeline by hiring data engineers. It is an interesting discussion about where to position this data management capability and related skill set. The first thought is to position this capability close to the HR systems and infrastructure function. This setup might work perfectly. However, based on your HR context and maturity, I argue that the people analytics practice is a good and sometimes better alternative. Mature people analytics teams are likely more able to think about data management and creating data products and services built with machine learning models. Traditional HR systems and infrastructure teams may tend to focus too much on the efficiency of the HR infrastructure (e.g., straight-through processing, rationalising the HR tech landscape).
Excel in product design and thinking
Successful people analytics or evidence-based HR services excel in product design. Whether built with PowerBI or vendor-led BI platforms (e.g., Crunchr, Visier, One Model), dashboards must be user-friendly, easy to navigate, and motivate users to work with data in their decision-making. The same applies to functionality based on machine learning models, such as chatbots, learning assistants, or vacancy recommendations. The user design, the functionality provided, and the flawless and timely delivery all contribute to maximising the usage of these analytical services and, ultimately, decision-making.
Strong product design and thinking requires product owners to have a marketing mindset
As important as the product design is product thinking by the product owner. A product owner for, e.g., recruitment or leadership programs, should be constantly interested in hearing what internal clients think about their products. This behaviour requires product owners to have a marketing mindset. As part of a larger continuous listening program, an internal client feedback mechanism should provide the necessary information to improve your products and services continuously. A product owner should be curious about questions like: Are your internal clients satisfied? Should we tailor the products for different user types? What functionality can we improve or add?
Allow yourself to experiment
When a solution looks good and makes sense based on your analytics, management tends to go for an immediate big-bang implementation. However, don't be afraid to experiment and learn before rolling out your solution to all possible users. Starting with a minimum viable product (i.e., MVP) allows you to evaluate your product among a select group of users early in the development process. Based on feedback, you can enhance your product incrementally (i.e., agile) manner.
It also enables you, when valuable, to compare treatment groups with non-treatment groups. These types of experiments (i.e., difference-in-difference comparisons) help you to evaluate the effect the new product intends to have. People analytics services can support this incremental approach, testing a minimal viable product (MVP) and obtaining feedback to provide additional insights that may avoid a big implementation failure of your new products.
Embrace the potential of AI in HR
Today, artificial intelligence (AI) is predominantly based on machine learning (ML). These AI-ML models provide powerful functionality such as vacancy and learning recommendations, chatbots, and virtual career or work schedule assistants. There is no need to fear these applications, but having a deeper understanding of them is necessary. However, implementing these types of functionality without checking and validating them is risky and, therefore, unwise.
A mature people analytics practice allows you to build your own machine-learning-based AI functionality
A mature people analytics practice allows you to create and build these AI functionalities internally. You can also buy AI functionality by implementing a vendor tool, but please ensure you do not end up with a new vendor for each AI functionality you desire. If you choose to buy AI functionality, the people analytics team should act as a gatekeeper. Internally built machine learning models are subject to checks and balances. And rightfully so. However, the same should apply to ML-based AI functionality from external providers. The people analytics team should check the performance and validity of the model and control for biases in the data and legal and ethical justification.
The people analytics leader can make the difference
If you are the people analytics leader within your organisation, it might be daunting or reassuring to hear that you can make the difference between failure and success. You bring the people analytics practice alive by reaching out to stakeholders, developing your team, understanding your clients, learning from external experts, and building a road map to analytical maturity.
A successful people analytics practice starts with the right people analytics leader
As a people analytics leader, you should excel in business acumen, influencing skills, strategic thinking, critical and analytical thinking, understanding the HR system landscape, understanding the possibilities of analytical services, project management, and, last but not least, people management (as all leaders should). The result of having all these capabilities is that a people analytics leader, together with the people analytics team, becomes a trusted advisor to senior management, understands the most pressing issues within an organisation, can effectively manage the HR data pipeline, and can build new analytical services to enhance decision-making and ultimately drive organisational performance and employee well-being.

Google Gemini
Enter Gemini AI , a multimodal AI that goes beyond the text-based approach. I can analyze resumes, cover letters, and even video interviews, understanding not just the words, but also the skills and experiences conveyed. Imagine identifying a candidate's coding strengths by reviewing their GitHub profile, or gauging their communication style and cultural fit through video interviews. This holistic approach empowers recruiters to build a well-rounded picture of each candidate, streamlining the hiring process and uncovering hidden talent.
Additional points you can consider mentioning:
I can help with outreach by generating personalized emails to potential candidates, highlighting their relevant achievements.
