RULE OF LAW: 10 LEGAL STORIES OFFICERS MUST KNOW

From social media to N jobs, how to protect yourself in company life

[One-line introduction to the class]

A corporate law attorney from Kim & Chang tells us 10 lifestyle laws that office workers lose money if they don't know

[Have you tried this problem at least once?]

“Is anonymously written company gossip a problem?”

“Can I take my work materials when I change jobs?”

“Can I get a gift certificate from a customer?”

“I remember using the wrong corporate card, what should I do now?”

“How do I report sideline income tax?”

Legal issues in corporate life are not major events in the news; they begin with a social media post posted today, a corporate card, and a tax invoice.

Small mistakes made without knowing can lead to discipline, damages, and criminal penalties.

This class starts with examples that office workers might actually experience, and explains in an easy-to-understand manner what laws apply in such situations, what to watch out for, and how to deal with them.
