Texas Eases Non-Compete Requirements

The Texas Supreme Court recently relaxed the requirements for non-compete covenants in Alex Sheshunoff Management Services, LP v. Johnson.

With Sheshunoff, employers are no longer required to provide an employee with confidential information and training at the same time the employee signs a non-compete agreement.

Thus, healthcare employers and employees should consider reviewing existing and future non-compete agreements with their counsel to assess enforceability.
