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.

    Yes, exactly. They have a separate clause in their contract that makes it so you can’t be hired at the company you’re being contracted to until you’re most of the way through your contract (or the company has to pay the contracting agency a decent chunk of change if they really want to hire you on early).

    And the noncompete is an additional document to prevent you from just ending your contract early and applying for the real position at the company without that issue.

    Basically the contracting agency trying to get as much money as possible. Even while offering the most minimum of worker benefits they can legally manage.
