When an employee posts something offensive or derogatory, HR professionals are often on the front line of protecting the employer’s brand. As people conduct more business and socializing online, Facebook and Twitter have become 21st century water coolers, where workers flock to catch up on the latest gossip, joke and vent. In today’s hyper connected culture, an online comment or photo can spread like wildfire from one co-worker to another and then to multitudes of strangers. What rights do you have to protect your company? Can you legally use social media to check up on potential or current employees? Join us for a lively discussion, real life examples and walk away with guidance from a seasoned HR Practitioner whose goal is to help you feel more confident and comfortable blazing trails in to this new frontier!
