Introduced Text

Kansas HB2650 mandates noncompete agreements be reasonable and void upon employer sale or control change.

Kansas HB2650 establishes that noncompete agreements between employees or partners and their employers or partnerships are enforceable only if the restrictions are reasonably necessary for protection. It also nullifies such agreements if the employer's business entity or partnership undergoes a sale or change in majority ownership or control. This act aims to balance employer protection with employee or partner rights.
