En la actualidad, una de las mejores maneras de conocer la personalidad y lo h\u00e1bitos de las personas es viendo sus perfiles en Facebook, as\u00ed que algunas compa\u00f1\u00edas y dependencias gubernamentales est\u00e1n pidiendo acceso a las cuentas de Facebook de sus potenciales empleados.<\/p>\n
\u00abEs como pedirle a uno las llaves de su casa\u00bb, sostiene Orin Kerr, profesor de leyes de la George Washington University y ex procurador federal, quien considera ese requisito \u00abuna grave violaci\u00f3n a la privacidad\u00bb.<\/p>\n
Desde la aparici\u00f3n de las redes sociales, muchos ejecutivos a cargo de las contrataciones revisan los perfiles de Facebook de sus empleados disponibles para el p\u00fablico en general, sus cuentas de Twitter y otros sitios para obtener informaci\u00f3n sobre los candidatos a un puesto. Lo usual es que la mayor\u00eda de los usuarios no permitan el acceso indiscriminado a sus cuentas, y lo permita solo a sus conocidos.<\/p>\n
Las compa\u00f1\u00edas que no solicitan los c\u00f3digos personales apelan a recursos como pedir al postulante que se haga amigo de alg\u00fan ejecutivo de la firma o que abra su cuenta en una de las computadoras de la empresa durante la entrevista. Una vez contratados, hay firmas que piden a sus empleados que se comprometan por escrito a no hablar mal de la empresa en las redes sociales. Por eso, m\u00e1s vale ser cuidadoso con el contenido que uno publica en redes sociales.<\/p>\n

\nSocial media is a big part of our lives and now it\u2019s threatening your chances of getting hired. Some employers are looking at employees’ personal Facebook pages. Others are digging deeper and asking for user names and passwords.<\/p>\n
There’s no law stopping employers from asking for this information, but there could be ramifications if that employer finds out certain details about the job seeker’s life and background. With information like race, gender, and religion provided on personal pages, they could find themselves battling a lawsuit if any of the information is used in the hiring process.<\/p>\n
Lisa Edison-Smith, a Labor and Employment Law Specialist at the Vogel Law Firm says employers may think they are doing themselves good by gaining access to an employee\u2019s personal account, but in reality they are putting themselves in danger.<\/p>\n
Lisa Edison-Smith \u2013 Labor and Employment Law: \u201cEven if the employer can get lawfully get access to it, do they really want that because if you can get access to that applicant or employees personal social media account, you may find out things that you can lawfully know as an employer.\u201d<\/p>\n
Edison-Smith says it is once these employers are in the account is when it becomes tricky.<\/p>\n
Lisa Edison-Smith: \u201cNorth Dakota human rights act prohibits employers from discriminating on a lot of basis, race, sex, religion, and you might find out a person\u2019s religion from their private social media posting.\u201d<\/p>\n
Although it is lawful to ask for personal passwords and log in information, it is never lawful to secretly gain access. Edison-Smith advises employers to always disclose that they are looking at an account.<\/p>\n
Lisa Edison-Smith: \u201cAn employer should notify any applicants or employees if they are going to monitor social media and they should only monitor private password protected information with the authorization of that applicant or employee.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
