Of course, I could substute "philanderer" for "paedophile" - persistent philandering is not illegal, of course, but it is highly disruptive in the workplace but, again, under your preferred "privacy of the individual", the sexual proclivity of an employees would be protected information and therefore unknown to the employer until it directly affected the productivity of several individuals .....

That's ridiculous, the employer has no right to know the sexual preferences of his workers and it shouldnt be used as a basis for whether someone is appropiate for the job or not
