Employee on onlyfans

If I was your husband I’d speak to HR. They will let him know what their organisation’s policy is. It’s a horrible situation but he will have taken what steps he needs to. What it does to his team cohesion can be dealt with according to the guidance he gets.

Weird. And how does colleague know they are on onlyfans? 🙄

it’s honestly none of anyone’s business what this person does outside of work?

He should sign up to her account and help her out, she's clearly struggling financially OR he could mind his own business.

@Oceniam

I would read the hospital/NHS trust policy and then consider what I would do!

All NHS Trusts have slightly varying policies, but if she’s not in her uniform, or stating where she works, I’m not sure if there is anything he can do, nor am I sure if he should do anything. It would depend on policy and perhaps he should ring HR for guidance as well.

Does your husband refer all his work dilemmas to you? It sounds like he may have been promoted beyond his level of competence.

Your husband her work manager not her life dictator.

The hospital will have a social media policy so he should follow that or ask his own line manager for guidance.

Many people promote their Only Fans account on other social media such as TikTok so this may have become public knowledge quite innocently, or she confided in the wrong people at work, or it was reported by a personal friend/family member with a grudge.

A lot of people seem to think it's ok but I am not sure they'd be so accepting if it was their child's teacher, for example. I mention teaching as they have similar social media policies to the nhs.

Oh come on. Everyone comes home and discusses their work dilemmas with their spouse or partner don't they. Perfectly normal to talk this sort of thing through at home imo. I know I talk to dp for advice if I'm worried about something at work.

No, and I’d be appalled if any of my colleagues ever did this. It lacks judgement, and if you need to go home and ask a significant other for advice on your work matters, also signals incompetence. If I had a work dilemma I couldn’t solve, I would have always gone to my line manager, or someone else in management that I trusted (sometimes extremely slim pickings) to bounce things off of, I have not, and never would consider DH appropriate.

If he is sleeping with her I get his point if not and then why on earth is it anything to do with him? is he the pope?

He needs to speak to HR to see whether the policy forbids this. You need permission for a 2nd job in my dept

Interesting. I always discuss work issues with dp as he gives great advice and I know it won't go any further. So I am proof that some people do that with best intentions.

DH and I always do but I'm confident he wouldn't then post anything identifiable online as idle gossip as it might get me into a pickle. But, and I could be wrong on this, this post for some reason strikes me as having a bit more to it regarding OP's involvement (or desired involvement) – maybe it's like the sheer lack of info from her DH on policy etc, especially given the NHS is a pretty big and structured organisation?

Poor woman being gossiped about by shitty colleagues.

She can so what she bloody likes with her own time.

And I wish I was one of those people who actually cared
enough about a job to run off and tell HR on colleagues.

Even if I was managing someone and I heard gossip they were on OF and it was forbidden would I do anything? Would I fuck. The workplace isn’t God. Life’s short and my company makes enough money out of its employees. If they were doing OF, I’d think good on them.

'Brought to his attention by a colleague'. Aye, aye.

Maybe he should give her a pay rise so she doesn't have to resort to onlyfans.

He may be her manager but it’s not up to him to dictate how she lives her life. I’d be telling the colleague to mind their own business and stop gossiping too.

Ffs do nothing. That’s what he needs to do what she does in her spare time is completely up to her. Only Fans isn’t illegal!!

@Oceniam personally nothing really to do with him unless it’s breaching a policy. However question he should be asking himself is why is she on only fans? Does her role pay enough so she can cover her billsetc.

This - except I'm glad I'm not one of those people who actually care enough about a job to run off and tell HR on colleagues.

What should he do about the petty human that reported her? You must mean that. Because that’s the only person who’s behaved badly.

He needs to speak to HR . It depends on her contract. If there's anything about the company reputation and appropriate representation of the company and she is identifiable and a public face in the company then it could be seen as breech of contract.

Personally tho it's nothing to do with him.

I would not care a bit if my child's teacher did onlyfans, as long as they're a good teacher. What others do in their private life shouldn't have anything to do with their work, unless it affects their performance.

Yes - I forgot to add the “I don’t actually wish that. I’d be a total wanker”.

I’ve been in management positions. It didn’t mean I thought the company was the be all and end all of life. I was under no illusions that I wasn’t as dispensable as anyone else and believe me, I cared more about the people who worked with me than the company we worked for, who wouldn’t have spit on any of us if we were on fire.

I did work with other sad little bastards on a power trip though who would run to HR over the smallest thing and I couldn’t believe it. What a sad little life, being happy to tell on other people to some company who would chuck you under the bus without looking back.

I couldn’t stand gossip either and would have nipped that in the bud immediately. And I certainly wouldn’t have been going home and telling my husband.
