- National Labor Relations Board decisions apply to all employers, not just unions. In the past few years, starting with “the Facebook Cases,” the NLRB has limited employers’ ability to curb employee commentary on social media. Learn what you can and cannot do in this arena, and how to avoid legal consequences. In addition, the program will highlight opportunities and threats associated with allowing employees to use their own devices for work (Bring Your Own Device). While BYOD practices can increase efficiencies, they may also hinder productivity and potentially increase employer liability. Gain a practical road map for approaching social media and BYOD at work and keep your economic drivers on track by avoiding unanticipated legal minefields.
