Common Questions

Employment-law thresholds and interpretations can change and depend on the employer's circumstances. Confirm legal requirements with qualified employment counsel.

Can my Bay Area company use non-compete agreements with employees?

California generally voids employment non-competes under Business and Professions Code section 16600, subject to statutory exceptions. Enforceability and remedies are fact-specific, so employers should obtain qualified employment counsel before using or enforcing restrictive covenants. TalentForge360 can help organize related HR documentation and coordinate with qualified employment counsel regarding alternatives such as NDAs and IP assignment agreements.

Does California's pay transparency law apply to remote roles?

Covered California employers with 15 or more employees must include the pay scale in covered job postings, including postings for roles that may be performed in California. Whether a remote posting is covered depends on the work location and other coverage facts. TalentForge360 helps California employers document compensation-banding and posting processes and coordinate coverage questions with qualified employment counsel.
