20 CASE EXAMPLES
21 Case Example John tweets that his older brother is being treated for Huntington s disease. His manager follows John s twitter account and notices the genetic information. A week later John is fired because the manager fears John will soon begin to show symptoms.
22 Case Example Amy applied for a job as a Project Manager. After two interviews she was the top candidate and was offered the job. When checking her references the hiring manager Googled her name and found her Facebook profile, where he learned that she was active in the Lesbians for Change political movement. As a result of the information he found, he did not offer her the position.
23 Case Example Miguel and his co-workers all follow each other on Twitter, including the foreman. Miguel finds out that he might be earning less per hour and feels that it may be because of his national origin. He tweets about the situation. Several co-workers confirm the salary difference and all claim that it is unfair. Two days later, the foreman calls him and the co-workers into his office and suspends them for three days without pay.
24 Case Example Robert really likes his co-worker Tammy and asks her out on a few occasions. She always says no. Robert decides to post information on his personal blog about Tammy. Co-workers begin to ask her when she is going to go out with Robert. She complains to her employer. What should her employer do?
25 Case Example Sally invites all of her co-workers to her baby shower and posts the photos from the event on her Facebook page. She friends all of the co-workers that were in attendance so they can see the pictures. Also on her Facebook page are racist jokes, comments, and cartoons. A co-worker complains about the material on Sally s Facebook page. What should the employer do?
26 Other areas The Fair Credit Reporting Act Spokeo case June 2012 National Labor Relations Act Costco case September 2012 Computer Fraud and Abuse Act Stored Communications Act
27 Case Example Cisco just offered me a job! Now I have to weigh the utility of a fatty paycheck against the daily commute to San Jose and hating the work. Who is the hiring manager? I m sure they would love to know that you will hate the work. We here at Cisco are versed in the web. The job offer was rescinded. CA Labor & Employment Bulletin, p. 91March/April 2010
28 Case Example Konop v. Hawaiian Airlines, Inc., 302 F.2d 868 (9 th Cir. 2002), holding that employee s private website, which included critical posts about employer, was protected from access by unauthorized users under the Stored Communications Act. The protection applied even though officer who access the website was given the necessary password from an employee.
29 Case Example Stengart v. Loving Care Agency, Inc., 990 A.2d 650 (N.J. 2010) Stengart ed her lawyer through her personal , but using her employer s laptop. Employer had a policy allowing it the right to review all matters transmitted on its media systems. Held: Communication was privileged, and defense counsel had violated the privilege by accessing personal cached on company-issued laptop.
30 Case Example What about these examples? Text: OMG u look gr8 in ur jeans! Posting: This girl at work, she better keep my name out of her mouth, if she knows what is good for her! Tweet: Do not work at Mad Spirits, its Wack! Plus the owner is sleeping with the waitresses!
