Beginning July 1, 2025, Virginia will prohibit noncompete agreements for all employees eligible for overtime pay. The new law builds on previous prohibitions for “low-wage employees” in the Commonwealth. As McGuireWoods previously reported, Virginia already prohibits noncompetes for most “low-wage employees,” defined as those who earn less than the average weekly wage in the Commonwealth. The 2025 average weekly wage is $1,463.10, or about $76,000 per year.
