1 Answer from Attorneys
Re: Person's Right to Work Freedom
Person A's freedom to work for B is absolutely infringed upon by B's non-compete. However, that infringement is perfectly lawful. There is no such thing as a 'right' to work where you want to. Employers frequently have restrictions. It is certainly an unfortunate situation for Person A, but there's nothing A can do about it.
