“Social Media – The Good, The Bad and The Ugly”

The HR Exchange continues to grow as one of the North West’s leading HR forums with over 90 directors and HR Managers regularly attending the events and building a strong network with like minded individuals.

We are pleased to announce the details of the first HR Exchange event of 2012 to discuss social media in the workplace!

We have great pleasure in confirming two guest speakers to join us for this event:- Keith Cottenden of Cy4or Computer Forensics will talk about the practical steps an employer can take to investigate and retrieve evidence in cases of computer, email and internet misuse by employees. We are also pleased to welcome David Pollard from Touch, sponsor of the HR Exchange, who will explore the positive side of social media for employers.

In addition, a workshop session will allow you the opportunity to share your own HR related social media experiences and to discuss with other delegates practical ways of dealing with any issues.

Your continued feedback is appreciated and in response to the forms from the last event of 2011, there will also be a comprehensive Employment Law update keeping you abreast of the most important legal developments in HR! Can you afford to miss it?!
