The big buzz these days is on how businesses can use social media sites – Twitter, Facebook, Foursquare and others – to raise their quotient of hipness to connect with clients and customers.

But, what to do when employees make social media blunders? That and how businesses can guard against it are to be discussed at a session Thursday at the Hauppauge Industrial Association’s Workforce Development Conference at St. Joseph’s College, Patchogue.

The seminar -- Tweet, Tweet, You’re Fired – is to be presented by representatives from Syosset-based Portnoy, Messinger, Pearl & Associates, a human resources consulting firm.

Among the day’s other topics? Mixing and managing different generations in the workplace, health-care reform, leadership, attracting and retaining key talent.
