- Tracy Sanders, Esq.
- Founder, Natural Hair and the Law, Los Angeles
The U.S. presidential election will be held this November and everyone has an opinion. While the Constitution protects free speech, those opinions should not necessarily be expressed at work.
Employees may be disciplined for political activism depending on the time, place and manner of the act, both inside and outside of the office.
Join Tracy Sanders, founder of Natural Hair and Law, as she leads a discussion about all forms of expression in the workplace. Tracy will examine legally appropriate vs. inappropriate communication at work, state and federal employment law, constitutional law and how it affects your clients. She’ll also look at other means of expression, including hair, clothes, tattoos, piercings and other ethnic or fashion choices and the interplay between personal expression and the law.
The program will end with five tips to navigate politics in the office.
This program will not advocate for any candidate or political party. It will strictly be a discussion of the law and legal rights.
