The Impact of Emoji in Workplace Communications

How Do Emojis Play Into Legal & Compliance Considerations, Case Law and Discovery Challenges?

eDiscovery is just now addressing the requirements of properly processing and rendering emoji as they appear in messaging. In the not-so-distant future, understanding a custodian’s use of emoji — particularly their favourites — will become part of the analysis of messaging when collecting evidence, conducting custodian interviews and understanding use.

The inappropriate use of emoji in the workplace (the definition of inappropriate itself a moving target) not only carries the stigma and repercussion of social misuse but can create legal liabilities too. As described in this eBook, a case can be brought on the basis of the emoji used in a communication and its adjudication won or lost on its accepted meaning. A meaning that is not merely tacit, but often explicit.

This eBook will cover:

  • A selected history of Emoji
  • How Emoji are being used in workplace communications
  • Real life examples of legal issues
  • Why the use of Emoji has become an eDiscovery technology challenge 
  • eDiscovery: Catching up and looking ahead 

Download this eBook to learn the impact of Emoji in workplace communications, how to best navigate the use of Emoji in legal issues and what's still to come.
