Guidelines for Employee Engagement on Social Media Platforms

Establish and refine your social media guidelines with the guidelines included in our Social Media Policy. This policy outlines the dos and don’ts for employees when engaging in social media, both personally and professionally, ensuring that their online activities do not harm the company’s image or legal standing. It covers various aspects, such as the proper use of company blogs, the handling of proprietary information, the responsibilities of employees while using social networks during and outside work hours, and the ethical considerations that must be adhered to.

The policy emphasizes the importance of maintaining professionalism online, protecting confidential and proprietary information, and respecting workplace policies, even in digital communications. By implementing such a policy, companies can safeguard their reputational and operational integrity while enabling employees to leverage social media effectively for personal branding and professional networking. This document is particularly valuable for HR departments and social media managers to ensure that all team members are aligned with the company's values and legal requirements when they represent or refer to the company on any online platform.

According to this policy:

  • Employees are always expected to conduct themselves respectfully and professionally.
  • Employees are fully responsible for what they post or otherwise communicate via social media channels.
  • Employees cannot post or otherwise communicate any proprietary, confidential and/or insider company information.
  • Employees cannot comment (officially or unofficially) on work-related legal matters or other confidential company matters.
