Webinar: Updates on Employment Discrimination and Employment Practices Liability Insurance
Cindy feels her rights are restricted by her employer's handbook, and that she did not get promoted as she expected. The handbook states that extreme political posts on social media are discouraged, especially if they involve the company. She often mentions her employer on her personal social media account, and she also posts about her favorite political party. If she feels this policy creates a chilling effect on her right to free speech, does she have a case against her company?
In the past Cindy would have to prove her rights were being restricted, but recently that burden of proof has shifted to the company to prove otherwise.
