There is no janitor anywhere who is in a position to negotiate a 50%-of-salary payment as a condition of signing a noncompete.
Historically, we (governments) have tended to write laws that constrain what employers can require, especially of low wage workers, because of the extreme power imbalance. Hence the existence of laws on minimum wage, overtime, mandatory breaks, paid leave, etc.
- yetihehe 8y ago> There is no janitor anywhere who is in a position If you count USA as anywhere then sure. My fiance is a janitor, if any company wanted to make non-compete clauses, she just wouldn't sign it. There is serious understaffing of janitors where I live, so if there was too much bullshit in her job, she would leave. And we see USA as pinnacle of freedom and job possibilities...
