Vermont H0334 restricts noncompete agreements and stay-or-pay provisions for employees separating from employment.

Vermont H0334 aims to limit employer restrictions on individuals leaving employment by voiding noncompete agreements and prohibiting stay-or-pay provisions. The bill defines "agreement not to compete" as any restriction on an employee's post-employment activities, which it declares void and unenforceable. Exceptions include agreements related to business sales, partnership dissolutions, and nondisclosure of trade secrets. Employers must notify affected employees that such agreements are unenforceable.
