Quick Answer

You are expected to use professionalism, discretion, and good judgment online. Do not post, record, or share work-related content, incidents, or information without approval, even outside of work hours. Online behavior may be reviewed if it impacts safety, confidentiality, trust, or the company’s reputation, regardless of whether it occurs during work hours or personal time. Nothing in this policy restricts legally protected communication about working conditions.


** The following is an excerpt directly from the LWG Safety Manual**

Digital Conduct & Social Media Responsibility

Team members must use discretion, professionalism, and sound judgment when engaging in online activity. Any conduct that compromises safety, confidentiality, or the company’s reputation is prohibited, regardless of whether the activity occurs during work hours or personal time.

 

Online Conduct Expectations:

  • Use of Social Media: Maintain a clear boundary between personal online activity and company-related matters. Avoid posting anything that violates confidentiality, contains offensive content, or compromises safety. Nothing in this policy restricts legally protected communication about working conditions.

  • Report, Do Not Post: Workplace incidents, concerns, or customer issues must be reported to a supervisor or HR. Do not share or comment on them through social media or other public platforms.

  • Respect for Privacy: Do not post or share names, photos, or information about team members, customers, or internal operations without proper approval. Always obtain consent before recording others. Unauthorized recording may violate privacy laws or company policy, especially in changing areas, restrooms, or private areas.

  • Ask Before Sharing: Always check with your supervisor or HR before posting anything that may reference the company, customers, or work-related activities.

 

Prohibited Online Conduct:

  • Unauthorized Sharing: Posting or circulating images, videos, or details related to team members, customer vehicles, internal processes, or workplace incidents without approval.

  • Recording Without Approval: Filming, live-streaming, or creating video content on company property or during work hours without express authorization.

  • Inappropriate Statements: Making public comments, jokes, or statements, even outside work, that reflect poorly on the company, violate policy, or damage trust.

  • Unprofessional Behavior: Participating in any online activity that could harm the company’s reputation, jeopardize workplace safety, or compromise confidentiality.
