APU Politics In The Workplace Episode 1 - The Legal Implications of Politics in the Workplace

Social media use has risen over the years, and responses on a variety of topics have spilled over into the workplace. Politics at work were once taboo, but now some employees feel free to share their political viewpoints in the workplace. How can we ensure that we provide a safe environment for these types of conversations? In this special podcast HR and management expert Dr. Marie Gould Harper, Program Director of Management at American Public University, interviews two legal experts, APU faculty member and lawyer Cynthia Gentile, and Ballard Spahr attorney Christopher Cognato, on the legal issues that can arise by bringing personal politics into a company.
