Despite many benefits social media offers companies, many risks arise when employees utilize these tools. For example, employees may make comments that bring negative publicity to the company. In addition, there is potential liability for discrimination, defamation, invasion of privacy, unlawful harassment, misappropriating trade secrets and other confidential information, and retaliation, among other things.
