LEXOLOGY
— Navigating Politics in the Workplace During the Election Season
https://www.lexology.com/library/detail.aspx?g=97f3cf73-8b88-4164-bf29-a43deaca47cc
(FROM THE ARTICLE: More often than not, these laws protect workers from adverse actions because of their political activities outside instead of inside the workplace. For example, with limited exceptions, Colorado law prohibits employers from firing someone because of their lawful off-duty activities, including engaging in political speech, and it also prohibits employers from making any rule prohibiting employees from engaging or participating in politics or running for office. New York law protects employees engaging in certain “political activities” outside the workplace during off hours, but it contains an exception where the employee’s activities would create a “material conflict of interest related to the employer’s trade secrets, proprietary information or other proprietary or business interest.” And Connecticut law prohibits employers from taking adverse action against employees who speak about matters of public concern unless that speech substantially interferes with an employee’s job or working relationship with the employer.)
