No-Poach Agreements & Wage-Fixing
YOU MAY BE ELIGIBLE TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION AND RECOVER DAMAGES
Unfortunately, sometimes employers unlawfully agree with their competitors to not recruit, solicit, or hire one another’s employees. Sometimes, companies also agree to not pay their employees above a certain amount, or share competitively-sensitive wage information with one another.
These kinds of agreements are unfair and unlawful. They hurt workers by limiting their employment opportunities and lowering their wages.
If you worked at a company with such an agreement, your rights may have been violated, and you may be eligible to seek compensation.
