Social media presents both risks and rewards for today's employers. With proper policies and training, companies can take advantage of social media for recruiting, marketing, and employee engagement. However, without thoughtful guidance, social media can become a legal and public relations nightmare. In this timely webinar, Bobby Puri will provide corporate in-house counsel with practical advice on social media compliance in light of increased scrutiny from the National Labor Review Board (NLRB). Using real-world examples of social media missteps by employees and executives, Puri will demonstrate how quickly online posts can go viral with unintended consequences and what it means for in-house counsel.

Join this webcast to learn how to:

  • Review social media policies to balance employer rights and employee protections
  • Mitigate risks from employee social media use across hourly staff and leadership
  • Avoid pitfalls in applicant screening and improper access of accounts
  • Understand state privacy laws and issues of account ownership
  • Prevent discrimination, harassment, and retaliation online
  • Implement specific guidelines and adapt sample policy language to help update your company's social media practices
