Love is in the air at Australian workplaces. A new study indicates an unprecedented number of workers are becoming romantically involved with a colleague, news.com.au reports.
The research shows 11 per cent of workers are in a workplace relationship at any one time, while 80 per cent have admitted to being involved with a colleague at some point in their career.
Onetest's Matthew Neale says the trend reflects the fact that people are spending more time at work which means they have less time to meet partners elsewhere.
He says the workplace is seen as a safe option to get to know a potential lover (as opposed to a bar situation), as there is plenty of time to gather information on a romantic target.
