🎉 What happens when the drinks have been flowing a little too enthusiastically and a grievance appears on your desk due to an over-friendly colleague?

As a Manager do you feel like the Scrooge of Christmas and feel pressure to behave impeccably?

Should you turn a blind eye to anything that occurs? 🎉

The list of dilemmas can be endless!

But don’t panic as here are some tips to avoid common issues and to have a party to remember for all the right reasons:

▪️Request that a reliable manager or HR representative remains alcohol-free to keep an eye on everything and everyone. 👀
▪️Cap the free bar and provide food or snacks. Ensure a range of refreshments, including soft drinks are provided to encourage rehydration. 🍻🍕☕️
▪️Show a duty of care towards staff such as arranging for transport to take employees home once the event has ended. 🚌 🚕
▪️Remind staff that, if scheduled to do so, you expect them to come into work on time the following day or they should book annual leave. ⏰
▪️Inform staff that they are representing the Company and as such should behave appropriately. 🖤
▪️Deal with any complaints that arise in a timely manner and carry out a thorough investigation. 📝

If all this sounds like hard work, then why bother?

Christmas parties can create issues but they should also be encouraged for a number of reasons such as:
▪️Boosting staff morale and team rapport. 🖤
▪️Rewarding hard work during the year. 👏
▪️They help to create the Christmas spirit. 🎄

So, should Managers attend a Christmas party?

Of course you should attend. It is your Christmas party too and you have worked hard all year so you deserve a treat.

Follow our guidance to reduce potential issues.
