relative to noncompete agreements for low-wage employees.

Summary

The bill bans employers in New Hampshire from requiring low‑wage workers—defined as those earning an hourly rate of 500 % or less of the federal minimum wage—to sign non‑compete agreements. Any such agreement would be void and unenforceable, and the law also limits any work‑restriction clause to a maximum of 12 months after termination. It aims to give low‑wage workers more freedom to change jobs.
