Inadequate Social Media Liability Training Is Causing Improperly Trained Employees To Make Costly Mistakes That Lead To...

A LOSS OF PUBLIC TRUST
BIG LEGAL FEES
DESTROYED CAREERS
EMPLOYEE PERSONAL LIABILITY
INCREASED INSURANCE PREMIUMS

2 Myth-Busters About  Having Insurance...

Myth-Buster #1: Even if your insurance covers you for social media mistakes. Your premiums will skyrocket, you have to pay a deductible, and your policy may be canceled. Also, insurance doesn't cover the loss of public trust from hurtful employee social media mistakes.

Myth-Buster #2: Even if employees obtain personal liability insurance, their claims can be denied if a court finds the social media posts were "willful"; insurance doesn't cover claims that involve "willful conduct".

"Mark, your information was like purchasing a one-million-dollar insurance policy." - Bryan Macy, Winston Salem Police, NC
