BODY EXPRESSIONS: BEHIND SOMEBODY'S BACK: meaning and examples

Hello. I hope you are having a nice day.

Today's expression is: behind somebody's back

Meaning: If you do something behind someone's back, you do it without them knowing, in a way which is unfair.

Example 2: She was accused of going behind her colleagues' backs when she went to talk to management directly.
