Read more FTC Issues Final Rule on Noncompete Agreements On April 23, 2024, the Federal Trade Commission issued a final rule banning virtually all noncompete agreements. It takes effect 120 days after publication in the Federal Register, which probably means an effective date sometime around the end of August.The rule prohibits employers from enforcing noncompetes with workers other than senior executives as of the effective date. A senior executive” is a worker in a policy-making position” earning more than $151,164 per year. The FTC estimates that fewer than 1% of workers fall into this category. Further, the FTC emphasizes that even that exemption applies only to current noncompetes. Once the rule takes effect, companies cannot enter into new noncompetes with any employees, even senior executives.The FTC will continue to allow noncompetes between the seller and buyer of a business. Also exempted are nonprofits, although some experts believe the ban will apply if an organization generates revenue for members of a for-profit entity. The final rule is over 500 pages, and lawyers are still poring over the details while companies await further guidance.There’s already a lawsuitThe FTC has defended its decision, noting that noncompetes restrict workers’ fundamental freedom to leave for a better job or to start their own business” and that they prevent workers from starting their own firms and block new businesses from hiring qualified workers.” The FTC says that about one in five Americans, totaling nearly 30 million people, are subject to noncompetes.However, not everyone agrees. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce issued a statement saying, The Federal Trade Commission’s decision to ban employer noncompete agreements across the economy is not only unlawful but also a blatant power grab that will undermine American businesses’ ability to remain competitive.” The organization is planning to sue the FTC.So although it’s unclear what will happen, prudent companies will use the next few months to review their own noncompete policies, working closely with legal and HR professionals. The FTC is recommending the use of nondisclosure agreements, which it believes will be sufficient to protect proprietary information.Meanwhile, interested parties can read the FTC’s statement and download the fact sheet. Those with the patience to read it can also download the complete rule.We will follow up with additional guidance as it becomes available.

Ahola HR Solutions | Payroll 4.1 Based on 156 reviews Marsha Davis 15:31 06 Mar 24 I highly recommend Proactive HR Consulting Services. In two short months, they gave our HR Department the push it needed, and in the right direction. Our management team presented them with our ‘wish list’ and one by one, they took them on; each time exceeding our expectations.Laurie always responded to all my questions in a timely manner with great suggestions and resources; so many resources that we were able to create a library of HR topics on how to navigate any HR issue we could think of. Always respectful of our time and eager to learn about our industry, she went above and beyond in helping us resolve current issues as well as pointing us in the direction of where we want to go.The flexibility this plan offers is key. The month-to-month agreement allowed us to ‘press pause’ when our company needed to focus on other issues. It’s great to know that we can return anytime and pick up where we left off. Like their parent company Ahola, we received the same great customer service, and attention to detail that we have come to depend on. Ken Weinberg 11:24 01 Feb 24 I have worked with many payroll companies in the past, but none can compare with Jake and Ahola. As a tax professional, I am approached constantly by payroll companies. The problem is they promise the world and offer low initial fees and great customer service, but this is only a sales pitch. Soon after the sale, they disappear. Customer service is lacking and your sales rep seems to change every year. Only with Jake and Ahola are you assured consistent prices and always the best customer service in the industry..Because when you go with Ahola, you also get Jake and he will always go above and beyond to meet and exceed any expectations you might have. Cynthia May 19:43 11 Jan 24 We have used Ahola for several years and cannot be more pleased.We are a small family business and they have always seen that we are well taken care of. CJ handles my payroll processing, and he is outstanding. He is knowledgeable and helpful. Ahola truly cares about their customers. I highly recommend them...
