Labor Standards cannot accept every claim. Labor Standards will not accept claims if you:
- Worked as an executive, administrative, or professional employee and earned over $900 per week
- tcoff91 4y agoWow that is some BS
- loeg 4y agoIt's similar in Washington. If you make less than $116k, no non-competes. Otherwise, get fucked. https://lni.wa.gov/workers-rights/workplace-policies/non-compete-agreements https://lni.wa.gov/workers-rights/workplace-policies/non-com...
- nceqs3 4y agoHow dare quants get paid $5m to sit on their couches for two years after leaving their firms! Congress must act!
- closeparen 4y agoNon-competes that pay you at or near your salary during garden leave are a different thing. The bog-standard non-compete in a normal SWE or IT position prohibits you from making a living at all.
- loeg 4y agoThe standard and legal minimum for WA employers is no compensation for the non-compete period. Also, the vast majority of workers that make more than $116k do not make $5 million annually, either before or after leaving their non-compete employer.
- nceqs3 4y agoIt would be 2.5 a year. Non competes are 2y across all of finance.
- jen20 4y agoGardening leave and non-competes are not the same. I doubt anyone feels any affronted by gardening leave.
- RhysU 4y agoOof. Thank you.
- umeshunni 4y agoYou know that limit was introduced because "most of the benefits of the labor standards board were going to the rich" or some BS like that.
- fabianhjr 4y agoProbably more via underfunding and civil servants wanting to focus on those that need it most.
- QIYGT 4y agoYikes. I could understand it if the limit was like $250k per year, but $900 per week is nuts.
- not2b 4y agoProbably the law passed long enough ago that $46.8k was a high salary and it wasn't indexed for inflation.
- hermitdev 4y agoWait... Professional employee? So... Paid people need not apply? Or, is this some weird definition of professional that only applies to white collar jobs?
