Description

The heated nature of the national political debate has spilled over into the work environment resulting in HR managers having a new set of challenges. Companies now face the dual difficulty of employees voicing their political allegiances in ways which the company may find harmful to its business or causing what could be best described as discomfort among their co-workers. Join us for an informative discussion on the legal issues surrounding the balancing of your employees first amendment rights and the company’s need to minimize distractions, political or otherwise as it focuses on running a successful business. This session will include:

• Research on the reported effects of discussing the current political environment at work
• How to establish a communication policy for employees when political topics surface
• Learning how to talk about politics in a productive manner
• Reviewing the key Do’s and Don’t’s of political conversations
• Providing advice to managers in addressing political discussions at work
