1 in 5 Australian workers have non-compete clauses, making it harder to get better paid jobs: new survey

Retrieved on:

Monday, June 19, 2023

In the US, researchers from the Bureau of Labor Statistics have found an extraordinary 18% of workers are subject to non-compete clauses of some kind.

Key Points:

In the US, researchers from the Bureau of Labor Statistics have found an extraordinary 18% of workers are subject to non-compete clauses of some kind.
They even apply where you might think they would not: to 9% of care workers, and 12% of US construction workers.

22% may be an under-estimate

The job leavers were asked whether, as far as they knew, they were “not allowed to join or start a business in competition with” their former employer.
Restricting the survey to job leavers means that, if anything, our finding that 22% of the workforce is subject to non-compete clauses might be an understatement.

Childcare workers, yoga instructors

They told us non-compete clauses had become more common and were now the default option in many employment contracts, applying to outward-facing junior roles in industries such as childcare and yoga instruction, in addition to more senior roles in law, finance and business services.
Our survey suggests they apply to 27% of trade union members, 43% of gig workers, and 26% of community and personal service workers.
Once, non-complete clauses were put in place to protect legitimate business interests, such as trade secrets and client relationships.

The US is considering banning non-compete clauses

In January, the US Federal Trade Commission proposed a ban on non-compete clauses, which it said could increase wages by US$300 billion per year.
In Australia, non-compete clauses are only enforceable if they can be shown to reasonably protect a legitimate business interest.

In addition to taking advice about the impacts of non-compete clauses in Australia, Andrew Leigh is also investigating no-poach clauses.
