Search Results: up front with men

1) Make a decided effort to communicate with female colleagues via email as opposed to face-to-face. Email provides documentation.

2) Do not come up from behind women in the office, either take a different route or make approach from the front.

3) Do not engage in any personal or dating/sexual conversations at all at work (even with another man) as it could possibly overheard by a woman. Conversations to which a woman is not a party can be seen as harassment or abusive and be a serious violation of HR policy.

4) If you want to ask a woman from your office on a date (not recommended), you may only ask her out ONE time.

5) Never have a meeting with a female colleague in your office without at least one other person being present. A better idea is to have a Skype or webex meeting even if she works in the same building.

6) Never comment about a woman's looks or fashion choices (i. e. "I like that dress" or "you look great today"). Never ask a woman if she is married/divorced/dating and never comment on the pictures she may have on her desk or as a screensaver.

7) Never meet a female colleague for "drinks" after hours. After hours with a female employee is still considered "work" by HR and any comments or behaviour can be reported to HR. Do no invite female colleagues to any non-work events (such as sporting events) as such invitations could be seen as "creep" ways to ask for a date.

8) If you must travel with a female colleague for work you should select different flights, and have hotel rooms on different floors, do not meet for meals or drinks unless they are part of an official function. Pay for your own rental car if necessary.

9) Do not offer unsolicited help to pregnant or disabled women in the office.

10) During office parties, do not consume any alcohol at all! Do not be alone with any women for even a moment. If you find yourself in a corner or room alone with a woman, quickly and politely excuse yourself and note the time on your watch.
