Yes, unfortunately, they can share that information with other employees. The fact that you were incarcerated is a matter of public record, so it is not as if they are sharing private information about you. Your best solution is probably to ask your employer to stop. It does not appear to me that you could get a court to force them to stop sharing the information.
