My wife walked into the restroom at work and there was a married co-worker being intimate with another co-worker who was not his wife in the restroom.

What is her responsibility in this matter? What constitutes minding her own business and what constitutes becoming an a party to their dirty little secrets? She can go to the boss and report it or go to the wife and tell what she knows or just pretend it didn't happen.

Give me some advice to pass on to her please.

It depends on the relationship with the people. Do you go to Church with them? Are they close friends? The Lord can sort out promotion and demotion, as they come from Him along with vengeance. I wouldn't go to the boss and be a snitch, it's not your responsibility to be an informant or police....or is it? You see, it depends on all the variables of responsibility at work, and the relationships between the people and yourself.
An open mouth seperates friends, but I don't see one bringing people together except in encouragement and with the gospell. If quiet, perhaps an opportunity will come for some way to be a witness to the truth, instead of being known as tattle tale. Pray for them, and that the powers that enslave them will be broken.

Thats a tough situation, I would address the couple, I would let them know that what they are doing is not right escpecially in the workplace. I would also inform them that they need to let their spouses know before they find out from a 3rd party, and let them wonder who that third party is. They will respect her for giving them the opportunity to clear up their own mess

Somewhere between the last two is what I think... maybe she can go to the married one and say she doesn't think it's right what they're doing, and offer some encouragement -- like if there are probs in the marriage (besides adultery, hah) she can offer encouragement there, or just reassure him that it's not too late and it's ok to stop doing that etc.

Personally I would ask for wisdom from the Lord and keep what I saw strictly to myself. Just the fact that they were caught in transgression might be shock enough to put fear in their hearts. Intruding in their affairs (no pun intended) could put your wife smack in the middle of nasty business. But if one or both are close friends, I would find a private time to gently talk with my friend. God would have to heavily impress upon me the need to go to the unsuspecting wife, otherwise I would not do that.
