MORE than 40 per cent of workers admit to sexual liaisons at the office Christmas party, a new survey reveals.

With office parties now in full swing, a seasonal poll claims that 41 per cent of British workers have got together intimately with a colleague at the annual office bash.

And indeed, far from indulging in a little foreplay, nearly a quarter (23 per cent) of those surveyed revealed they had snogged a colleague, with nearly 13 per cent shedding all inhibitions and making love.

In fact, nearly a fifth of the British workforce has admitted to having sex at their workplace, proving that Britons can mix business and pleasure.

Of those having sex, six per cent admitted to actually getting caught.

But perhaps most reassuringly, almost a fifth of people said they would sleep with their boss to get promotion.

However, romance isn't quite dead, as most (52 per cent) claimed they'd fancied the object of their affections for ages.

The survey also reveals that the most popular office spots for passion are the boss's desk, the stationary cupboard and the office car park.
