Social Media and Free Speech - What can you do when your employees' speech impacts your company? In today’s era of online advocacy, many people are vocal about specific causes in their social media accounts. In some cases, social media has been used to target a corporation by those who question or disagree with corporate actions. What should you do if your employee engages in a form of speech on social media that reflects negatively on your company? What if your employee supports a cause that makes others in the company feel uncomfortable or even unsafe?
