In this episode of #BebelHR, AuntyHR sits down with Dzulfadhli Lamin, a seasoned IR & HR Consultant with over 10 years of experience, to talk about one of the most uncomfortable yet common workplace realities - office affairs.

We explore office romance from a Malaysian employment law and industrial relations perspective, including:

•⁠ ⁠Are office affairs considered misconduct?

•⁠ ⁠When does an office affair cross the line into a disciplinary issue?

•⁠ ⁠Why falling in love isn’t wrong, but workplace behaviour matters

•⁠ ⁠What HR can (and cannot) do to manage office relationships

•⁠ ⁠Can HR take action if a spouse calls in to complain about an affair?

•⁠ ⁠Why declaring workplace relationships is important

•⁠ ⁠What to do if you’re a bystander who feels uncomfortable

•⁠ ⁠How office affairs can escalate into sexual harassment cases

•⁠ ⁠How sexual harassment is investigated and proven

•⁠ ⁠A brief discussion on the criminalisation of workplace bullying

This episode is essential viewing for HR professionals, people managers, business owners, and employees navigating sensitive workplace dynamics.
