“How do you deal with co-workers at after hour’s events when they have had too much to drink or are acting inappropriately towards you?” asks JoAnne Williams, University of Georgia and Delmar Harrison, Howard University

You should avoid being alone with someone who has had too much to drink. Safety occurs in numbers and stay with the group. If you find yourself one on one, urgently need to go to the bathroom, collect yourself and return to the group or invite others into the discussion. Never stay until you are one of the last to leave.
