Family – The holidays for most individuals is a family time, but the definition of what constitutes a family is very broad. For some, their most important relationship could be with a friend or a distant relative. As you gather to show your appreciation for your employees’ hard work and their contribution to your collective success, we suggest being as flexible as possible in your definition of who they may be permitted to bring as their guest.

Celebrations – It is important to remember that not everyone celebrates the same holidays or in the same way. Ask your employees what holidays they celebrate and consider how those can be incorporated into the company’s festivities. Consider celebrating your staff’s religious diversity by asking employees to share an aspect of their faith or culture (food, decoration, tradition, etc.) that is part of their holiday celebration. Doing so can create a meaningful exchange both enriching and fun for the whole team.
