is there non-fraternization in your work place?

Non-fraternization (may be called differently in other companies) is basically having intimate relationships in the work place. There are certain rules such as a manager cannot engage in an intimate relationship with his/her direct subordinate. I can still see the point of it being implemented since it tries to prevent favoritism at work. It happened a lot of times in a lot of companies where the manager favors a subordinate whom he/she is involved with. It may even lead to office politics and may have adverse effects to working conditions and employees resigning and leaving the company if it's rampant. I'm not against office relationships though. As long as both are responsible and fair to everyone else, I wouldn't mind. If they're at work, they should work, when they're off, let them do what they want. Have you seen or experience similar situations? How did the employees take it? Take care.
