Counselor, in collaboration with the Professional Liability Underwriting Society, White and Williams Labor and Employment attorneys Laura Corvo and Andrea Moss examine the lessons employers can learn from recent news headlines involving government officials who inadvertently included a journalist on Signal Chat where sensitive information was discussed.\u00a0 Looking at the news headlines from a slightly different angle, Laura and Andrea discuss the many risks employers face when their employees utilize electronic communication tools such as inadvertent disclosure of confidential information and exposure to workplace harassment claims.\u00a0 Laura and Andrea offer suggestion for best practices in managing those risks including developing strong written policies, training and enforcement.<\/p>\n<p>Special thanks goes to White and Williams, LLP for partnership in the production of this episode.<\/p>\n<p>You can listen to more episodes in the series below:<\/p>\n<p><a
