Office Romances: How HR Should Navigate A Match Made at Work

Welcome to People Person! In this episode, host and Morning Brew’s SVP Head of People Operations, Kate Noel, speaks with Kaila Lopez and Kyle Hagge, hosts of Per My Last Email, a show that dissects the intersection of work and culture, all about office romances. Kaila, who met her husband at work, offers a strong opinion about getting romantically involved at the office, while Kyle has a slightly more optimistic outlook on the matter. From when to tell HR to the question of telling your boss first, and even asking if it’s ever ok to hold hands at the office, this conversation is as enlightening as it is entertaining. 00:00: Intro 01:20: When to disclose to HR 08:55: Do you tell your boss or HR first 13:10: Are people more open about office romances now 17:10: Serial dating at the office 21:20: How involved should HR be 24:20: Office Appropriate or Out of Pocket game Watch Per My Last Email’s episode about dating at work: youtube.com/watch?si=u6DKw3O8kKfDwuXZ&v=z4FJKbgl2i4&feature=youtu.be Listen to Per My Last Email: https://www.permylastemailshow.com/ Subscribe to the HR Brew newsletter: https://www.hr-brew.com/subscribe Watch People Person on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@hr-brew Follow HR Brew: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hr_brew/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/hrbrew/ Have a question for us?
