Employees need to communicate in various situations, often using temporary messaging apps or from different locations. Recently, new guidelines have been introduced regarding the use of these temporary messaging systems. Companies are no longer expected to prohibit employees from using ephemeral messaging, but instead are required to implement appropriate guidance and controls over these types of platforms and communications. Join us for a roundtable discussion covering the regulatory background, and practical tips on monitoring employee usage, training, and enforcement when it comes to off-channel communication apps.

After the presentation, there will be cocktails, chocolate delights, and savory appetizers. It's the perfect way to wrap up the night—don't miss out on the fun!
