One fifth of those surveyed said they have had a relationship with a colleague
Many relationships start in the office, with one in five people meeting their partner at work, a new study has revealed.
A survey of 1,600 adults by the TUC showed that one in three have had a relationship with a colleague.
A fifth of those questioned who are married or in a civil partnership met their partner at work.
The TUC warned office romances can cause problems, especially if one partner has a senior job.
