And dating people at work is practically forbidden now
You know you don't have to tell your boss you're dating a coworker right? It's not their business what you do in your off-time. Dating people is legal. Do you tell your parents every time you take a shit?
Dating someone is not a protected class, and unless there is a demand for illegal action or potential whistleblowering, then you can get fired for it without consequences. Helll you can be fired for ANY reason as long as it's not retaliatory or in violation of protected class
Dating people is legal, which is why you don't get arrested for it. But that ain't got any overlap with business policy.
*In the US. In countries with decent labor laws this doesn't fly.
