Off Duty Employee Conduct: What Rights & Obligations Do Employers Have to Take Action

Session Description

Employees engage in a variety of “off duty” activities that may create implications and risks for their employers: political activities and protests, social media posts, criminal conduct, as well as various lifestyle decisions. Employers who become associated with this conduct by way of these employees may have obligations, or may be restricted from acting, depending on the situation and the jurisdiction.  

This session will explore various real-world scenarios and the potential legal ramifications for employers, including what rights and obligations employers have to take responsive action --- employee discipline, terminating employment, a public relations response, or nothing because the employee’s conduct is protected by law.  This session will also provide insights into various options for policies to allow the company to minimize impact and the risk of litigation.
