Below is the draft for the policy

General Order Draft: Social Media Policy

Purpose

This General Order is in place to lay out the guidelines for employees to follow when using social media in their professional and personal lives (Serenko, 2024). The policy aims to ensure the maintenance of public trust, safeguard confidential information, ensure professionalism for the agency, minimize legal liability, and assist with appropriate involvement of the community.

Policy

Staff should behave professionally in all their online activities, for which it is reasonable to hold them liable as employees of the agency. An employee shall not post any confidential investigative records, evidence, criminal history information, court proceeding information, or material that could harm the investigation or court proceeding (Serenko, 2024). Refrain from any posting of content that may be considered discriminatory, harassing, threatening, or offensive to another, which could not be considered to instill public confidence or professional ethics in the employees.

Agency logos, uniforms, badges, vehicles, or agency equipment must be removed from personal social media accounts when not authorized to be shown. Employees will not express personal opinions as a representation of the agency unless given express authority to do so (Ross, 2023). Only specific person(s) shall have access to control all official agency social media accounts.

It is important that employees realize that there is no privacy when using privacy settings. Information on the internet can be made public and might be subject to review in internal investigations or legal proceedings. The reporting of breaches of this policy is the responsibility of the supervisors. Depending on the amount of violation, counseling, retraining, disciplinary, suspension or termination may occur. Violation and/or civil liability are possible if a violation or breach of confidentiality occurs.

This policy aims to make it clear to the school community that there are expectations for transparency, professionalism and accountability in the workplace, as well as for staff to exercise their rights appropriately. Criminal justice agency policies involving formal practice on social media are important for maintaining the integrity of criminal justice agencies and for the community to believe in criminal justice agencies, and they continue to have a place in shaping community views on CJA policies.
