Inactive relation causing the filter to not work

Hi Guys,

Need help with dealing with an inactive relationship below in HR data.

Yolo_pbi_0-1709180845536.png

Context: I am trying to get the total active employees based on the date slicer from date table and the condition am using is max(date) >= joining date, and < last day at work or last day at work = blank. 

Output is returning for only last day at work = blank. Can someone please help -.-




as it's not making my DAX work: 

Headcount =
CALCULATE(
    DISTINCTCOUNT(DET[Staff Member]),
    FILTER(
        DET,
        DET[Joined] <= MAX('Date'[Date]) &&
        (
            DET[Last Date Worked] > MAX('Date'[Date]) || ISBLANK(DET[Last Date Worked])
        )
    )
)
