Relating to: noncompete clauses for medical practitioners.

SB 657 prohibits noncompete clauses that restrict medical practitioners from working for more than 24 consecutive months after starting a job. It also makes all such noncompete agreements unenforceable if an employer terminates the practitioner’s employment for any reason. The law applies to defined medical practitioners, including physicians, physician assistants, psychologists, and advanced practice nurse prescribers. These provisions make affected noncompete agreements void and unenforceable under Wisconsin law. The bill takes effect after publication, with specific definitions updated to clarify the scope of "medical practitioner."
