"Managing the Risks of Social Media in the Workplace"

Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, MySpace, YouTube, Flickr, and Blogs – on computers and cell phones. Social media is everywhere, including your workplace. It has many positive uses, but what if an employee personally attacks a supervisor on a blog?

What if the blog is anonymous? How about confidential information being divulged on Facebook? Can an employer take action when the employee uses social media during non-work hours? These technologies create unique risks for employers and we’ll discuss various ways to manage them in your workplace.

Please join Stoel Rives Labor and Employment Partner Matt Durham for a complimentary lunch seminar as they explore the benefits and risks of social media in the workplace. Topics will include:

Introduction to social media

Employer and employee uses

Risks to employers

Policy considerations

Monitoring

Discipline
