SUMMARY:The Free Speech Myth: Defamation Risks in Workplace Speech
DESCRIPTION:Employers and employees alike often assume that “free speech” governs what can be said in the workplace. But the First Amendment to the United States Constitution offers limited protection in private employment settings. And everyday workplace communications can create real legal exposure. This program explores how defamation claims arise in the workplace in five common situations: workplace investigations\, “for cause” terminations\, reference checks\, social media issues\, and employee departures. Designed for both legal and HR professionals\, the session provides a practical framework for navigating sensitive communications\, avoiding overstatement\, and reducing risk in moments where words matter most.
