    • Summary:"Social Media and Privacy Law for Employers - Hiring, Firing and Managing Reputation is a practical resource for small businesses, managers, legal advisors and human resources professionals who are looking for guidance in dealing with the most common employment law issues relating to social media and privacy law in the modern workplace. In addition to general guidelines for hiring and firing, the book discusses hot topics in the area, such as privacy and the use of technology in the employment context.
      This volume offers a valuable overview of this new and complex space where both employers and employees have a social media presence - complete with a range of rights and responsibilities. Bocska reviews the most important aspects of this evolving area and includes commentary and analysis of the privacy and social media issues employers frequently face, including employee productivity, privacy and their ability to scrutinize employees' online activity. By addressing these concerns at the various stages of the employment relationship, this book helps define the boundaries between the personal and professional spheres of life."--pub. desc.
