“MySpace” Or Your Space – What Every Employer Should Know About Social Networking in the Workplace
Presented
by Misti Mukherjee
Social media applications such as blogs, social networking, and video sharing have surged in popularity over the past few years, and, in one form or another, are now used by employees in almost every workplace. Forward-thinking companies across the globe are embracing social networking sites and blogs for, among other things, branding, client development and service, research, recruiting, and to improve employee engagement. Social media use also poses risks for employers, such as employees sharing confidential company information, disparaging their employers and co-workers, or posting embarrassing videos recorded in the workplace. As social media use continues to expand, companies of all types and sizes will face questions regarding employers’ and employees’ respective rights and responsibilities. This program is designed to help guide employers through the various laws and other issues that come into play when employees use—or misuse—social media.
