Compli has announced the addition of social media policies to the Compli platform.
The new content will be provided by Fisher & Phillips, LLP and Wallace Welch & Willingham. According to Compli, the content will include policy recommendations for the use of social media in the workplace, including: blogging, social networking, online public communications and progressive social media.
“Social media is unique in many ways, but one of the most fundamental differences is it developed through a change in society, not a ruling in court or the legislature,” says Chris Hoffman, partner at Fisher & Phillips. “Many of our clients know they need to have policies and programs in place but don’t know where to start.
“From an employer’s standpoint, it’s important to control the information that’s coming out of the business, whether that takes the form of forums, chat rooms, blogs or text messages. It is imperative for management to have policies and procedures in place that spell out how employees are expected to conduct themselves within social media when working on behalf of the company.”
Lon Leneve, president and CEO of Compli, says customer requests motivated the changes in the company’s platform.
“Social media is currently a new landscape, so we’re filling in the gaps for our customers with policy recommendations and best practice recommendations,” he says. “Our new content helps clients analyze their needs, adopt and implement written policies and educate their employees on what is expected when using social media tools and channels.”
