I have asked a colleague out for casual hookup on a social media platform. I did it only once. She has raised a posh complaint against me. Will I get fired for this?

A.Dear Client,

The consequences of asking a colleague for a casual hookup can vary depending on the workplace policies, the nature of your relationship with the colleague, and the local laws and regulations. In many workplaces, such behavior may be considered inappropriate or could potentially violate harassment policies.

It's important to respect boundaries and maintain a professional environment at work. If your colleague has raised a complaint, it's crucial to take the matter seriously. Your employer may conduct an investigation to determine if any policies have been violated.

Whether or not you could be fired depends on the severity of the situation, your employer's policies, and the outcome of any investigation. If you are concerned about potential consequences, you may want to consult with your HR department or seek legal advice to understand your rights and obligations in your specific situation.
