Really?
The guy was the COO, almost by definition everyone else in the company reports to him through some direct line.
The guy admitted to having a physical relationship. There is absolutely no gray area here as far as HR would be concerned.
Your a C level exec, you have a physical relationship with someone else at the company, whether or not it stopped before that person arrived, you report it the first moment you know that person starts working at your company.
I agree relationships are messy and life has lots of gray areas. This, however, is not one of them. This is HR 101 and if your still not convinced he admitted he knew this and should have reported it.
- danilocampos 14y agoYou are absolutely, 100% right. Wouldn't want to say anything isn't the same as wouldn't say anything. We do things all the time where we know it's the wrong call, but we want to do it a certain way anyway. I doubt there's anyone who believes he should have said something more than he. I just get the mindset that clouded things. I know I should have gone to the gym this week. I didn't. You can probably understand the thinking, moods and circumstances that made that true, but we'd still agree I made the wrong call. That's all I'm saying.
