“Facebook Firing” Case Settled

by | Feb 8, 2011 | News

The NLRB announced last night that they had settled the case against American Medical Response related to the termination of an employee for complaints made against a supervisor on that employee’s Facebook page. The terms of the settlement were not clear in the Board’s release, but it appears the company agreed to rewrite its policies related to social media. This undoubtedly won’t be the last case on the subject, but I think the employer community can be thankful that the Board won’t get an opportunity to weigh in on Facebook pages right away.
