Hi Friends, Can a company get any kind of documents to refrain any current or ex-employee from posting something against the organization?

We have a clause in our code of conduct , to refrain from social media posting. But what more can be incorporated in NDA, reguarding the same.

Dear Amanpreet Grewal,

You have raised two posts on the same subject. The replies are as below:

Post 1: - India is a democratic country or at least it is called so. Therefore, you cannot gag the employees for criticising the company. Why your company is wary of the criticism? Employees of all the big companies criticise public websites like www.mouthshut.com Notwithstanding the criticism by the current or the former employees, these companies continue to grow. Going further, big companies monitor these websites and identify on what count the employees have expressed frustration. This helps in taking corrective actions.

Post 2: - If you have inserted a clause in the code of conduct to refrain from social media posting about the company then it remains to be seen whether it stands scrutiny against the fundamental rights in vogue. Having said that, let me come to the heading of the post. It says about writing derogatory remarks about the company. Yes, expressing frustration is different from writing calumnious posts or discrediting the company. However, the line that divides the criticism and calumny is thin and it requires great patience to understand that the former is not the latter.
