Relationships-in-workplace: Affairs at work can lead to marriage breakup and divorce!

The theme covers relationships at work, which are a major part of our working-life. Not only do we go to work to earn a living and to take care of our homes and families, but we also go to work to enjoy the social-aspects of relating with people.

We develop close and casual friendships with work colleagues. Affairs with colleagues can create problems for us both at work and home, often impacting career prospects and leading to marriage breakup and divorce!

Relationships-in-workplace: Types of difficulties...

The types of difficulties that people have that affect their work are very diverse. These can include:

• Health-related stress, smoking, alcohol and drug use
• Crisis
• Careers
• Relationship conflict and distress
• Parenting issues
• Family violence - emotional, physical, sexual abuse
• Separation and divorce
• Rebuilding after separation
• Family loss and grief
• Adjusting to life transitions - children leaving home, retirement
• Decision-making - home or work-related
• Conflicts and stress with work colleagues - supervisor, team-mate or manager
• Sexual concerns.

When our relationships at work and at home are going well for us we feel invigorated and alive: we like being at work.

The relationships between our personal/family life and our working life are two-way. Relationships at work lead to difficulties and stresses, which can affect our personal and family well-being, just as difficulties at home can affect our performances at work.
