Agency work between assmt conflicts?

[HarleyNrs]

Does anyone have experience or information in doing agency at your tax home with a company that also has a travel division? I am wondering if the employment agreement for local agency would impede taking a travel assignment with a different company, out of town, where the home agency also has contracts?

for example: i want to work for comp x locally per diem agency. I get a contract offer with company Y (my usual travel comp)out of state . Comp x has the same position offered through there travel division. Would there be a conflict?

Non-competes only affect client facilities you've worked at, or at least been submitted to recently. They cannot restrict you from working at all contracted facilities.

Ned, on a similar topic, would that be true for Parallon? I'm under the impression if you sign on with Parallon, you cannot work at another HCA facility with a different agency, only with Parallon. I started to sign on with them, but backed out. I would love clarification on that!

Thanks, Ned. I was hoping that was the case.

Don't think of Parallon as an agency, they are HCA! Fully owned by HCA. Thus they can restrict hiring at all HCA facilities as they wish.

Thanks Ned! That is how I have thought of them. The wording of the question could apply to Parallon, which is why I wanted clarification on them specifically. I am currently on assignment at a HCA hospital, so I'm glad not to be restricted in that way!
