Lisa Bryson, Associate at A&L Goodbody, outlines a checklist on social media in the workplace.
The checklist covers:
- Using and understanding social media
- Is your email and internet use or communications policy is currently 'fit for purpose'?
- Review your disciplinary, bullying and harassment, and data protection policies to ensure that they 'dovetail' your social media policy.
- Ensure that your policies and procedures are clearly communicated and circulated to all employees.
- Staff contracts and any restrictive covenants
- Do you have a 'bring your own device policy' in place?
- Social media as a recruitment tool.
