I worked at a place that had lots of young people and HR's definition included even a single time, and intent does not matter, perception does.
They would also punish without letting the person know who/when/where they were accused by.
This was not theoretical CYA policy, I saw one guy fired and another lose promotion and both swore they did not know why.
- zozbot234 3y agoA workplace is a very special setting though. Your coworkers are people you have to be around day in and day out, and to mix any kind of romantic pursuit with that is just asking for trouble. Especially in this day and age when "perception" can easily shade into outright paranoid attitudes.
- itishappy 3y agoThat should be standard HR policy everywhere. There is no appropriate way to hit on coworkers. It's unprofessional at best and a company-ending liability at worst. HR's job is to protect the company from both.
