SPONSORED | ‘I never made a fuss and I never told anyone, and I don’t know why. Although it did aggravate my suspicions that his initial work-related instruction was a calculated move just to give him a jolly.’ – Natasha Sutherland writes. etvScandal

Natasha Sutherland plays Layla on 'Scandal!'.Sparked by the current friction at NFH that my character Layla is trying to arbitrate, I was asked to write a “playful ironic” piece on sexual misconduct in the workplace, which gave me pause for thought.

It’s a biggie! This topic can potentially create more controversy than someone deciding to relocate to Wuhan and start a wet food market. It’s polarising to say the least. Is sexual misconduct in the workplace happening? Yes. Has it been happening uninterrupted for years? Hell yes. It’s insidious. Is it cut and dry? No.

If someone requests 50 boxes of duct tape to be added to the office stationery order list, I would suggest giving that colleague a wide berth. “If you put your hand in my pocket you may find a rocket” is not only a pathetic pickup line but is also, I’m pretty sure, the wrong thing to say to a co-worker, unless of course the co-worker is having consensual, mutually pleasurable, non-toxic transactions with the cheesy-pick-up-line person in the gender-neutral office toilet.
