Yet Another Acrimonious Election Year: The Challenge of Political Talk at Work (and On Social Media) (Jul 2024)

Discussions of political and social issues continue to dominate our newsfeeds and social media, and are sure to heat up heading into the election this Fall. When those discussions boil over into the workplace, it can be challenging for employers to balance employees’ exercise of self-expression with maintaining a respectful and productive workplace. Join us for a discussion of the legal issues around workplace expression in a charged political climate, including protected concerted activity, free speech implications, workplace respect and social media policies, and claims of retaliation.
