Florida’s CHOICE Act allows non-compete and garden leave agreements lasting up to four years for “covered” high-earning employees and shifting the burden to employees to prove that an agreement is not enforceable. Supporters argue that the Act protects trade secrets and attracts businesses, while critics warn it may harm worker mobility and increase unemployment.
