One of our lawyers was called by someone from Industrial Markets who was laid off. He indicated that he had an employment contract that has a six month non-compete for involuntary termination. He said that he called HR to get a waiver of the non-compete so that he could pursue new employment and was told that no waiver would be granted. Is that our policy or are these issues being addressed on a case by case basis? I find it hard to believe that we would even think about enforcing a non-compete for someone we've laid off, so why not grant the waiver? If this is not the policy, we need to get this straightened out.
