[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All depends on the context. More information needed. You might also consider whether it creates a hostile work environment (which is separate from harassment per se), but again more context needed. [/quote] Hostile work environment is a form of sexual harassment. (The other form is called "quid pro quo" which means that the harasser asked for something, ie, a situation in which sexual favors or actions are demanded in exchange for keeping a job.) HWE has to be pervasive and severe in order to exist. Telling someone they look great doesn't rise to that standard. However, a cautious person would be wise to think about his or her actions in today's workplace. Giving out compliments and being an effusive person might not be a wise idea.[/quote]
