The Federal Trade Commission narrowly voted Tuesday to ban nearly all noncompetes, employment agreements that typically prevent workers from joining competing businesses or launching ones of their own.

That's a good question (but you might want to rephrase it to something clearer).

I think he's asking about temp to hire, the employee being given an offer, but only if they quit and quit looking through the temp to hire agency, then get picked up by the company they were working for (before the 1 year that the temp to hire would be collecting commission on)

But I don't have the foggiest what the answer would be

Basically yes but I get the impression he means more than labor or basic admin, which I'm not too familiar with. For the basic stuff I believe the company pays the temp agency a small fee. From what I've seen the temp agency doesn't really care about retaining people so they just roll with it.

Basically a lot of the low level jobs are contractors. And you can eventually be hired by the company as a colleague once your contract is up. The contracting agency, however, put in a noncompete clause so that the contractors can't end their contract early in order to apply for that company's colleague position.

The answer is "fuck em". If your business model requires restricting the rights of people, your business shouldn't exist

They can still function as a staffing agency...
