Is sex at work a matter for HR policy? Should, or indeed can, one try to legislate matters of the heart or hormones? Should workplace romances be dealt with in an open, adult way or <strong>made taboo<\/strong>?\nWorkplace romances are inevitable. People with similar education, interests and values are recruited to organizations. And if they spend eight or more hours a day together, it\u2019s no surprise that attractions develop. So, why shouldn\u2019t the office be a good place to find a partner?\nThe argument goes that workplace romances can and do have an impact on organizational dynamics, which, in turn, affect <span><strong>outcomes<\/strong><\/span> \u2014 productivity, morale, efficiency. Senior people can <strong>lose the plot<\/strong>, <strong>take their eye off the ball<\/strong>, compromise their integrity. New channels of unofficial communication can be opened up and closed down. The <span><strong>appointment<\/strong><\/span> of favoured sexual partners can seriously affect how people perceive the <span><strong>transparency<\/strong><\/span> and justice of a selection process or promotional system.\nTwo criteria define workplace relationships. One is hierarchy and the other is the openness of the relationship. The <strong><span>combination<\/span> <\/strong>of these factors gives four groups. So, you could get two journalists openly living together, the head of sales openly dating a team member, two board members keeping an affair <strong>hush-hush<\/strong> and a married CEO bedding his secretary.\nThere is some evidence that job performance goes up among those in same-level relationships, but goes down in hierarchical relationships. And the theory is that a lot of energy is wasted in trying to keep close relationships secret.\nBut there are other factors that impact job performance. The first is pretty obvious: how good is the relationship? A healthy relationship <strong>boosts morale<\/strong>, energy and enthusiasm. Work motivation can improve because workplace lovers\u2019 enthusiasm for being at work increases. So, if you put pressure on a relationship, you will cause stress for individuals and reduce motivation.\nBut workplace relationships can cause resentment among other employees who feel, rightly or wrongly, that <strong><span>favouritism<\/span><\/strong> occurs. This could decrease the productivity and morale of those not in a workplace relationship. And the more counter-cultural romantic relationships are to an organization, the greater the problem. Workplace relationships happen, full stop. Draconian rules often lead to secrecy, <strong>rumours<\/strong>, <span><strong>gossip<\/strong><\/span> and false accusations. Being open, grown-up and sensible is the best strategy.<\/p>\n"},"library":"H5P.AdvancedText 1.1","subContentId":"734a3a0e-7618-49d1-b49e-ca22ce54ec23","metadata":{"contentType":"Text","license":"U","title":"Unbenannt: Text","authors":[],"changes":[]}},"useSeparator":"auto"}]},</strong></span></strong></span></strong></strong></strong></span></strong></strong></span></strong></span></strong></strong></strong></span></strong></strong></p></span></h3>
