Event Synopsis:
Social media has become both a boon and a bane for modern businesses. It has provided opportunities as well as legal concerns for many employers. As the use of social media continues to impact the modern workplace, employers must create social media-related employment policies which comply with the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA) and state employment laws to avoid potential legal challenges arising from the use of social media in the workplace. Many employers have already come under attack by the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) for overly broad social media policies, costing them substantial sums of money. It is important that a company's social media policies are crafted in clear and easily understood language and which specify what is and is not permitted.
Our panel of key thought leaders and practitioners will discuss the profound effect of social media in the workplace and the steps that employers can take to avoid a myriad of issues. They will also offer guidance on drafting and enforcing lawful social media policies and practices.
In this LIVE Webcast, the speakers will discuss:
• Impact of Social Media in the Workplace
• Use of Social Media in the Hiring Process
• Common Issues for Employers
• Implementing Lawful Social Media Policies
• Recent Legislation and Case Law Update
