✅ The Big Question: What is a non-compete clause? π
A non-compete clause is a provision in a contract that restricts one party (usually an employee or business partner) from starting or working for a competing business within a specific time frame and geographical area after their association with the company ends. It’s designed to protect your business interests and prevent the misuse of sensitive information. π’
