Welcome to AccelPro Employment Law, where we offer interviews and products to accelerate your professional development. Today we’re featuring a conversation about non-compete clauses. Our guest to discuss the best ways to please both parties is Nefertari Rigsby, the Executive Director, Human Resources and Employment Law Partner for Kaplan North America.
Non-competes are a necessary, if also controversial, part of the modern employment landscape. Employees dislike them because they may hinder the ability to land a better job. But employers want them to protect their business interests.
Rigsby previously worked in private practice in employment law and as in-house counsel and a strategic business partner for a Fortune 500 company. In this interview, she talks about best practices to craft non-competes agreeable to both sides; the complications presented by different states having different laws; and tips for how Human Resources can best approach a former entry-level employee who now has a job requiring a non-compete.
