Abstract
In 2016, the Department of Justice (DOJ) and the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) issued its Joint Guidance for Human Resources Professionals on no-poach agreements. Since then, the Antitrust Division has continuously emphasized its initiatives in scrutinizing potential anticompetitive employment agreements.
With the heightened regulatory investigation on no-poach agreements, companies are confronted with a myriad of challenges including exposure to lawsuits and enforcement actions. To manage these risks, businesses must revisit their practices and policies on employment agreements as well as keep themselves abreast with emerging developments in antitrust law.
In a LIVE CLE program, The Knowledge Group has brought together a distinguished panel of thought leaders and practitioners to provide the audience with a comprehensive discussion of the DOJ’s recent enforcement initiatives on no-poach agreements. Speakers will also present emerging regulatory trends and developments in antitrust law and offer the best compliance practices as well as tips in drafting standard employment agreements to avoid legal liabilities.
This course will discuss the following key provisions:
• No-Poach Agreements: Enforcement Trends and Statistics
• Regulatory Updates in Antitrust Law
• Notable Cases and Court Rulings
• Risk Mitigation Strategies
• Drafting Standard Employment Agreements
• Best Compliance Practices
