I have been suspended from work. My crime is creating a facebook group for my team to communicate outside work.
There main problem with this is that i used the old company logo on the group, and also put the company website in the website box. Most of my team joined the group, about 30 people, including 2 of my team managers. I have been suspended for this, and it is going to be classed as gross misconduct, and could result in me loosing my job. The group was blank, no information or defamatory content against the company or anyone. They are classing it as 'Bringing the Company into Disrepute.
Another issue is that they say i am not allowed to communicate with anyone who works for the company, but that is most of my friends. My best friend works with me, and also lives in the flat above mine and we spend most of our free time together. I dont understand why we can have no contact. Can they do this? Is it not a breach of my human rights? This surely cannot be legal. Help!
