5 Things You Have To Think About When Organising A Work Christmas Party
Work Christmas parties have to be well thought out due to the extensive health and safety regulations and legal requirements
. Its vital that you think about these, otherwise you could run into a number of problems.(1)First of all, you need to be aware of your staffs culture and religious backgrounds. Not everyone will celebrate Christmas, so take this in mind and never pressurize everyone to attend the annual Christmas celebration. Pressure to attend not only makes the event not fun for staff, but crosses the boundaries. If not many people celebrate Christmas, instead create an annual office celebration that celebrates the end of the year, rather than Christmas.
(2)You will need to make sure the venue for your work party is up to health and safety standards. This particularly applies if you are intending to organise it in your own office block. It is less of an issue in outside work venues as regular health and safety checks are made.
(3)A Christmas party is special event, so dont let a few people affect others enjoyment. Always remind staff that best behavior still applies and they should follow normal office behavior regulations and failure to do so will incur a disciplinary or warning. This will hopefully avoid any bullying or outlandish comments, which can occur at work Christmas parties.
(4)Even though it is a celebration, dont encourage excessiveness. A major issue at Christmas parties is staff drinking far too much. Free or open bars often encourage this type of behavior, so avoid this type of free for all and instead opt for a gracious free drink on you.
(5)You should also be prepared to organise transport for all your staff. Despite it being out of office hours, you are still responsible for making sure your staff has access to transport or a room for the night. Making your staff aware of the transport options on the invitation will help them make their way and back safely.
Organizing a work Christmas party is a lot of effort as you have to create an interesting party that is also within health and safety guidelines..
