With the amount of time we spend at work these days, it should come as no surprise that the office is where many singles find true love or at least someone worthy of a few dates. Great news for single people everywhere! Not so great news for employers.
Workplace romance can have major legal implications for employers. Take, for example, the case of Gary and Diana. Gary is the head of IT and Diana is one of seven other employees in that department who reports to Gary. Having worked together for several years and gotten to know each other fairly well, Gary asks Diana out. Diana accepts and a romantic relationship forms quickly.
