- narrator 9y agoIn California employers can't claim ownership of work done off the clock[1]. Non-competes are also not enforceable generally in California[2].

- tw1010 9y agoAre non-enforceable non-competes a recent thing?
- toast0 9y agoIf you've been working in California for California employers, you've probably seen non-competes that prevent working for a competitor concurrently with that employer. I believe those are enforceable. What is often presented in other states is an agreement to not work for competitors that extends for maybe 6 months to 2 years after employment; that's not generally enforceable in California, except with some specific exceptions, generally around when a business owner sells their business. This has been the case for many years, through judicial review as well as legislation.
- burntwater 9y agoI'm curious what places would make the contract invalid considering the work is being done on-the-clock and likely on company equipment.
