Summary

Virginia’s cracking down on non-compete agreements with a major July 1st law that limits employers’ ability to enforce these clauses—especially after involuntary termination without severance. Workers earning below $78K annually or eligible for overtime now have stronger protections, and employers must disclose compensation tied to non-competes upfront. Old agreements remain unaffected, but new ones must comply or risk being voided. Employees can challenge unfair terms, and non-compliant employers face penalties. This shift levels the playing field for Virginia workers navigating job transitions. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
