Updated CalChamber Social Media White Paper

HRWatchdog blogged a couple of days ago that employers keep running into social media trouble.

Perhaps the single biggest trouble spot is disciplinary actions. The typical scenario is this:

• While not working, an employee posts a comment to his/her personal Facebook page about his/her workplace or something his/her employer did. 
• The employer finds out about the post and decides to fire the employee.
• The employee files a complaint about his/her termination with the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB).
• The NLRB reviews the situation, and finds that the employer acted unlawfully.
