Product Description
The explosion of social media and data mining, combined with changes in federal and state law, have created thorny, ever-evolving challenges for employers, employees, and employment counsel related to employee privacy and off-duty conduct. Our panel of experts representing individuals and employers provide practical advice to help you better understand the sensitive balance between employers’ business interests and employees’ privacy rights—and key insights into how access to employee information can unconsciously taint decision-making and lead to legal claims and liability. The panelists offer a full range of perspectives, including that of in-house counsel, management lawyers, and employee-side counsel. Get up-to-date guidance on workplace privacy concerns and issues related to off-duty conduct that arise every day in the workplace—from hiring through retention, employee discipline, and termination.
