For agreements entered into after January 1, 2017, California Labor Code Section 925 clarifies that employers may not require employees––who primarily work and reside in California––to agree to forum-selection and choice-of-law clauses that select non-California forums and/or laws, unless such employee is “individually represented by legal counsel in negotiating the terms of an agreement.”

Correct. California is its own beast when it comes to employment law and franchise law and a host of related issues.

Edit: and I glossed over the part about "employees living full time in California." My bad.
