1. Flirting: Flirting is basically something which naturally happens in an organization with male and female workers.
Sometimes, however, this comes off the wrong way to certain people (especially women) and can lead to a sexual assault accusation.
Others have been known to use a persistent flirting with them as an instrument of revenge to get them kicked out of the organization.
