Dangers Of using Public Networking SitesMembers who use any social networking site i.e. such as Face Book or Twitter must be careful about what information and comments you place on them.
Two members of staff have recently been dismissed from employment for posting inappropriate comments on their face book pages.
It is important that you do not mention your place of work, job title, work colleagues or refer to any client of the school/council. Otherwise you could be charged with; posting inappropriate comments in the public domain of a social networking site, thus bringing the school/council into potential disrepute and leading to a complete breakdown in trust and confidence.
We also have another member suspended from work regarding allegations arising from face book content.
Please be very careful, comments made in fun to friends can result in dismissal!
