Now that workplaces are more diverse, inclusivity is something that needs to be considered when organising office festive parties.
Some Christmas traditions, like a tree draped in coloured string lights, still stand the test of time for most workplaces that celebrate this holiday. The standard boozy party may not be though, as many no longer choose to drink. So, this year, you may want to consider some alcohol-free alternatives.
A festive escape room
Escape rooms have become a common trend as work bonding activities in recent years, and can make for an entertaining festive party.
The idea is that everyone is locked in the room and has to decipher clues to find their way out. You can book escape rooms that have various themes, including Christmas, and it will get everyone working together to try and solve the mystery.
Festive massage session
Christmas is one of the best times of the year, but preparing for it can also put people under a lot of stress!
Therefore, booking professional massages for everyone, whether they work in the office or from home, can be an ideal way of soothing away the aches and pains that are caused by stress.
Meditation and yoga classes
If you feel like massages might make some members of staff uncomfortable, but like the idea of a party that priorities relaxation and wellbeing, why not book meditation and yoga for everyone in the office?
Both of these practices are proven to help people unwind, which is something that most people need at the end of a long year.
