Join us for a special ♥ Valentine's Day ♥ program all about Workplace Romance!
People meet and fall in love at work. Some companies foster office romance because both parties “understand” the company and each other’s work pressures. On the other hand, the concerns of unwelcome sexual attention and aftermaths of soured relationships, and “quid pro quo” abuse of management power, have led a number of employers to implement policies prohibiting or restricting workplace romance. Some courts have warned that “employers who do not have co-worker dating policies leave themselves vulnerable to sexual harassment charges.” However, restrictive policies have generated lawsuits over constitutional rights, invasion of privacy, and have even been found to be discriminatory themselves. This entertaining and thought-provoking presentation focuses on balancing the interests, whether to have restrictions, and how to manage these policies.
