Personal Relationships Policy
    1. Objective
    • [Company Name] strives to provide a work environment that is collegial, respectful, and productive. This policy establishes rules for the conduct of personal relationships between employees, including supervisory personnel, to prevent conflicts and maintain a productive and friendly work environment.

     

    1. Procedure
    • A “personal relationship” is defined as a relationship between individuals who have or have had a continuing relationship of a romantic or intimate nature.
    • An employee who is involved in a personal relationship with another employee may not occupy a position in the same department as, work directly for, or supervise the employee with whom he or she is involved.

    [Company Name] reserves the right to take prompt action if an actual or potential conflict of interest arises concerning individuals who engage in a personal relationship that may affect the terms and conditions of employment. Supervisors and managers are prohibited from dating subordinates and may be disciplined for such actions, up to and including termination.

    When a conflict or the potential for conflict arises because of a personal relationship between employees, even if there is no line of authority or reporting involved, the employees may be separated by reassignment, or terminated from employment. If such a personal relationship between employees develops, it is the responsibility and obligation of the employees involved to disclose the existence of the relationship to the department director or manager.
