Has anyone taken legal action against WS's employer because OP was their manager? With a company where mgmt / employee relationships was taboo?? and when company is not doing anything about the 2 year affair???

Secondbest1,

As an attorney who practices in this area and also manages corporate compliance for her company, I can tell you your likelihood of success are very slim. (I am struggling with this, right now, myself because we have an employee who is involved in an affair and it is driving me crazy give my background as a BS). There are no laws prohibiting consensual relationships between employees. The only legal recourse is if the sexual advances are unwelcome, if the one of the affair parters is a supervisor treating the affair partner who is a subordinate preferentially, or after the A ends a supervisor retaliates with negative consequences against a former A partner who was a subordinate. While the company may have a policy prohibiting such relationships it is up to the company whethr it wants to enforce the policy because it is not legally mandated to do so.
