Abstract
With the ever increasing number of hours Americans spend at work, many are finding romance at the workplace. What should the employer consider when deciding whether and to what extent it should control romantic relationships between supervisors and subordinates and among co-workers? This paper addresses some of the social and legal issues surrounding these relationships and whether fraternization policies are a viable tool for handling the complex human issue of romance in the workplace.
