Episode 22: It’s a TRAP: What Is Replacing Noncompetes?

Описание: Episode 22: It’s a TRAP: What Is Replacing Noncompetes?

Episode 22 of the Reasonable Measure Podcast explores TRAPs, Training Repayment Agreement Provisions, and why they are emerging as noncompetes face growing legal pressure.

Tim and Chris break down how these stay or pay contracts work, why they can restrict employee mobility even when someone is not going to a competitor, and what courts and regulators are starting to look for when these agreements are challenged. They also discuss why overly broad repayment terms can start to resemble noncompetes in disguise and why retention works better when it is earned, not enforced.

Key topics covered
TRAPs explained in plain English
How stay or pay agreements differ from noncompetes
What makes a TRAP more likely to hold up in court
