Abstract
Having friends at work can be good for employees and businesses alike. It fosters a sense of belonging, reduces turnover intention, and increases creativity and innovation, all good for performance. However, workplace friendships come with downsides too, including rumours, sexual harassment, nepotism, and favouritism. Odessa S Hamilton, Jasmine Virhia, and Teresa Almeida recommend seven practices to ensure that friendships are equitably beneficial among teams and do not develop into unfavourable outcomes.
