the NLRB issues new rulings last week concerning what can and what cannot be posted on facebook. you can discuss work conditions in the same manner you would have these discussions at the 'water cooler'. you cannot disparage clients or customers. these are two examples. what did you post ? ed dimon, esq.
The answer is "it depends" -- it depends on the content of the post. The National Labor Relations Board takes the position that employees have a protected right to discuss the conditions of their employment with other employees of the same employer and potential union representatives. Under its interpretations, you cannot be terminated for such discussions, regardless of the medium in which they occur. However, everything else is pretty much fair game, since an employer does not need a "good" reason to terminate an employee's employment.
