Employees love social media. Many use it to build their professional profiles and networks, usually with a corresponding benefit for their employer. But we all know that employees’ social media use can also negatively impact their employer.

Employers are also connected. Brand building, market positioning and recruiting new talent are just some of the ways they’re capitalizing on social media. But there are also risks associated with employers’ social media use – from exposing employees to harassment online to basing hiring decisions on social media searches.

Join Baker McKenzie’s Employment & Compensation Group in Toronto on June 7, as we discuss the legal and reputational risks posed by both employees’ and employers’ social media use and provide practical guidance to help minimize your exposure.

The event will run from 8:45 am – 11 am, with breakfast provided. To RSVP and for any questions please contact Kylie Aramini: kylie.aramini@bakermckenzie.com
