The Federal Trade Commission narrowly voted Tuesday to ban nearly all noncompetes, employment agreements that typically prevent workers from joining competing businesses or launching ones of their own.
Basically a lot of the low level jobs are contractors. And you can eventually be hired by the company as a colleague once your contract is up. The contracting agency, however, put in a noncompete clause so that the contractors can’t end their contract early in order to apply for that company’s colleague position.
