Of the thousand people polled, 520 found an error ‘add’ to the boss.
The survey, conducted between 12 and 15 January this year by Project Liberty Mutual Responsibility, also showed that 76 percent considered acceptable to be friends with a coworker.
Thus, it was shown that there is a common fear among users of Facebook and other social media around the world on how to address a request of friendship from a boss or an employee.
“When roles change, what do you do You take away from friend to someone when you’ve been promoted to chief or when you’re his boss?” Said researcher Kelly Holland, who participated in the poll.
“We get into some very complicated situations regarding what people believe is responsible,” Holland said. “When people refer to accountability, they know what is responsible, but if you are doing or not in practice, is a different story,” he added.
Concerning the use of social media at work the poll showed that 73 percent say it is wrong to update your Facebook status, 82 percent should not upload photos, 72 percent believe that ‘twiter’ is bad and 79 per cent, which is not acceptable to see online videos.
Despite this, 66 per cent of respondents said it looks bad to see the personal mail while you’re working.
Americans were divided on whether companies should review the profiles of candidates for a job in social networks, since 52 percent believe it is appropriate, while 48 percent was unacceptable.
Thus, the survey also revealed a common fear among users of Facebook and other social media around the world: how to deal with a request of friendship from a boss or an employee.
Boyfriends and sons
These media can also lead to some difficult decisions when it comes to family and relationships. The 60 percent of respondents found it “completely unacceptable” remove as friend to an old boyfriend or girlfriend of the friend list.
More than 40 percent of parents believe it is irresponsible to put pictures of children online. The controls 31 percent of Facebook accounts of their children and nearly 70 percent of their children’s friend on Facebook or MySpace. Likewise, the 72 percent limit the time your children spend on social networks.
Over 80 percent of parents say that teachers should interact with students online, but are divided on whether social media should be used as evidence to punish student behavior.
“The scope of social media is incredibly complex in terms of responsibility,” said Holland.
But despite the nebula surrounding the responsibility of these media, there is an area where almost three-quarters of Americans agree: they believe that it is “selfish and a waste of time” to create a Facebook page for a pet .
