This program is available only to ABA members. If you are not already logged into the ABA Web site, you will be prompted to do so after submitting your registration.
Faculty Members:
Businesses are looking for ways to control the activities of their employees when they're away from the workplace. Businesses say they're just trying to hold down medical costs by regulating the personal habits of employees on such things as smoking, drinking, and eating. Other developments include efforts to control employee blogging and other electronic communications, romantic behavior, and even activities like volunteer work and serving on boards. In recent cases, a good number of these regulations have been upheld. The line is out there someplace, and both sides are trying to push it as far as possible in the direction that most serves their interests. What rules should be followed in this evolving environment and what advice can lawyers give to both employers and employees? This audio program looks at what employers are trying to do, how workers have been resisting, and who seems to be winning the legal battle.
