Workplace Blogging Policy

There’s a great article here on the dangers of workplace blogging.  If you don’t already have a workplace blogging policy in place, you should start thinking about one.  Here are some sound suggestions on developing the policy.  As always, contact your employment lawyers before implementing a new policy.  If you do adopt a blogging policy, make sure it includes guidelines on podcasting, which should be the source of the next wave of HR headaches.

Workplace Blogging

The Electronic Frontier Foundation (which describes itself as “a donor-supported membership organization working to protect our fundamental rights regardless of technology”) has added a Bloggers’ FAQ on Labor Law (located here).  It’s written for employees and addresses legal issues arising from workplace blogging.  I found the discussion on NLRA rights the most interesting.  Of the few terminations that have occurred as a result of employee blogging, I don’t think anyone has challenged the dismissal based on Section 7 rights.  That said, I would expect to see that lawsuit within the next year or so.
