Can my employer post my photo on social media without my permission and not pay me.
Asked on Jun 28th, 2022 on Internet Law - Michigan
More details to this question:
My employer posted my photo on their social media page to promote hiring for their company. I knew they were taking pictures, but I never consented to being on social media. I myself do not even use social media and they are getting free advertisement out of me. Do I have a legal foot to stand on?

It will depend on what your employment agreement says. Normally to use someone's image you have to have permission. Many employment agreements permit use of image. You can force them to remove your image and they will have to do so.
But it might cause them to terminate you from the company.
