Thanks for the comment Julian. I agree if there is encouragement there must be implied consent to publish contacts unless the employee has been told that the contents are strictly confidential!

As you say, would you sue an employee for breach of confidence? Not only hard to prove but what do the other employees think?

Motivating and managing staff at a practical level has to be the key to manage this problem.

I am not sure I agree with the analysis that if an Outlook database is migrated to LinkedIn that ipso facto that that information is the employers. Even where consent is not expressly sort, if an employee is encouraged or more likely pressurised into winning work, then it must be a legitimate argument to say that the employer must have impliedly sanctioned it unless of course there is an express policy that forbids such conduct. However, this presents a very odd scenario. If the contact does not accept the invite where does the data then sit - not in a vacuum I would conjecture - and save for deleting the sent items then what loss flows from this? If the contact accepts the invite but nothing further is done where does the loss arise. It would be a nonsense to issue proceedings unless of course the numbers were so substantial to make it otherwise. The principal issue is the soliciting, canvassing, enticing or tapping up AND leading to business going to the individual or his new employer. However, can these contacts be called anyone's and what happens where even if they were not on the network when the invite was sent but it can be shown that they would have been, having received an invite from elsewhere. This will require the courts to elucidate on the definition of "client" in an electronic space and it cannot be right that someone who would have joined the network could be described as an exclusive client of the business. Interesting times but no matter how detailed a handbook or policy it will not eradicate those people that want to argue their way out of the mischief that is clearly intended by preventing the export of contacts.

Where does this end though particularly when the client knows that the ex-employee is on other social networking and bookmarking sites.

I very much hope that the law does not become the sledge hammer to crack a nut.

Great blog post again.

Julian
