Probably silly to think like that though...
The trick is to pay them well and treat them right so they will not want to leave. Sure, it may still happen on occasion but mostly folks prefer to avoid the hassles of ownership if they can make a living as an employee. A non-compete can help but you have to have the cash to enforce it and even still, there are ways to get around it. Take care of your people and they will be loyal.
