Social media can be an effective way to share information when working remotely. It has increasingly been used across the GC. The Treasury Board Secretariat states that “Departments and employees use social media for:
* official government business and/or communications activities
* work related activities such as networking, gathering and sharing knowledge, career development
* some personal use according to <nowiki>''</nowiki>acceptable criteria.”
To learn more about the Government of Canada’s policy on social media, including the rules for how we manage websites and corporate social media accounts, you can review the Treasury Board’s GC Social Media Requirements.
Many government departments and agencies use Twitter and Facebook to communicate with the Canadian public and their own employees and stakeholders. Find out if your organization is active on social media and follow along for important information.
