Forum Questions About Employee Separation Agreement

Employee Separation Agreement

California

Asked on Mar 12, 2025

Can an employee be forced to sign a separation agreement that includes non-compete clauses?

I recently received a separation agreement from my employer, which includes non-compete clauses that restrict me from working in the same industry for a certain period of time. I am concerned about the potential impact on my career prospects and wonder if I can be legally compelled to sign such an agreement.

Jeff G.

Answered Apr 25, 2025

Forced? No. Can they condition signature to receiving some form of severance? Yes. Can they condition it to receive a final paycheck of money earned? No. Can they include a non-compete in a separation agreement? Yes… but California has VERY employee-friendly laws related to non-competes. The specifics of the presented language in the agreement will matter and should be reviewed by competent counsel in your jurisdiction.
