SHRM's 2024 Workplace Romance study delves into the effects of workplace romances on U.S. workers' professional lives, the repercussions of breakups at work, how these relationships are revealed, and more.
We found that most workers who are currently involved in a workplace romance say their relationship has enhanced various aspects of their professional lives, such as their overall mood, motivation, and sense of belonging at work. And for those who were previously involved in a workplace romance but aren’t anymore, most say they don’t regret their past experiences.
