My question involves employment and labor law for the state of: KY
Here is whats going on.
Gave noticed to a small 6 people IT company here in town.. Got a job offer for quite a bit more money and benfits at a hospital company who is huge 200k people.
Gave notice get called in today and let go, and told that I am breaking my non compete, the reason they give is i am doing a similar job ( IT work) for the hospital. Which is no way a client of ours, they do how ever own a small clinic who we used to do work for allmost 2 years ago. At that time they where not owned by the company whom i will be working for.
So they had a lawyer send a letter to the hospital, and gave me on saying that since I am doing IT work with in 50 miles I am violating my agreement.
This all may be null since I am "working" out of nashville and just assigned to a hospital in my area which could change at any time.
Any input?
I can post copy's of the NCA and the lawyer letter if need be.
