How Utah treats the clause

Utah changed its rule on May 6, 2026. Which rule applies depends on when your agreement was signed.

Signed before May 6, 2026

Enforced with statutory limits

For an agreement entered into before 6 May 2026, Utah's healthcare void does not apply; the general rule caps a post-employment non-compete at one year.

Generally unenforceable

Utah voids non-competes for healthcare workers, dentists included, entered into on or after 6 May 2026. Older agreements fall under the general one-year cap.
