Relating to prohibiting covenants not to compete against workers.

HB 4067 prohibits most employment contracts from including "covenants not to compete" that restrict workers from seeking new jobs or starting businesses after leaving their current role. The bill directly affects most Texas workers by banning these restrictions, but exempts "senior executives" who earned at least $151,164 in the preceding year and held a "policy-making position" (such as top leadership roles). Key provisions define terms like "covenant not to compete," "policy-making position," and "senior executive" to clarify who is covered and who is exempt. This bill creates new sections in Texas business law to replace existing non-compete rules, focusing on protecting lower- and mid-level workers while allowing restrictions for high-earning executives.
