Answer
This will depend on your workplace code of conduct and the kind of work that you do. In general, you should be able to express your own opinions and belief freely in your own time on social media. However, certain jobs and especially regulated professions, have rules and codes of conduct that can apply to how you use social media outside the office. Make sure you are aware of what your employer expects of you. If you do face disciplinary action, seek advice from a lawyer to guide you through the process.
