Re:Non fratzernization ?

C level execs can't chill with the employees. They might accidentally develop human feelings that might cause them to view their employees as people and not just cogs in the machine. Next thing you know, they might start treating them with compassion, and you know that's no good for the shareholders!

Female or male employee?

I looked up in the WIkipedia: Fraternization (from Latin frater, brother) is "turning people into brothers".

What "non-fraternization policy" may mean?
