Overview (Program Summary)

Hosted by Pestalozzi, this event will welcome Martin L. Mueller, Partner at Pestalozzi.

Martin will provide insights into the legal framework and employer obligations when employees engage in misconduct outside of work.

What if:

  • An employee is caught on video singing xenophobic songs at a private party on a public holiday.
  • You find out that an employee has been mistreating his wife so severely that she had to seek refuge in a shelter.
  • Employees have a private chat group where they make highly derogatory, sexually suggestive, or insulting comments about a co-worker or their manager.
  • An employee likes or engages with an extremist group on social media.

We will discuss whether an employer has the right and even an obligation, respectively, to take measures if an employee behaves badly outside the workplace.

The presentation will conclude with an open discussion and a networking apéro.

The event will be conducted in English.
