Navigating Election Season: Not so Free Speech in the Workplace and Voting Leave

Everyone has strong opinions about politicians and issues, especially during this 2020 election season. Inevitably, these opinions may come up during conversations at work where they can be disruptive and interfere with productivity. These conversations also can expose employers and employees to legal risks if they do not fully understand the laws that govern political speech at work. During this breakfast briefing Fisher Phillips attorney Drew Tate will offer practical guidance and provide employers with tools on how to maintain office productivity without interfering with employees’ ability to engage in protected speech, as well as guidance on the requirements for employers to provide leave so that employees can exercise their right to vote.

Approved for 1 HRCI and SHRM credit.
