In this episode of The Legal Lens, Webber Wentzel experts Dhevarsha Ramjettan (Employment Law) and Aaqilah Nagdee (Forensic services) break down what employers must do when a sudden resignation is followed by a confidential information leak.
We explore what counts as confidential information, how to legally access employee devices, the urgent forensic steps needed to preserve evidence, and whether disciplinary action is still possible after resignation.
