Christmas Tips and Traps for Employers
As we move towards the last quarter of the year, it is that time when workplace Christmas parties are being planned, and people begin looking forward to celebrating another (hopefully successful) year. Christmas itself can present some unusual challenges for employers, and often employers are unsure as to what they can and cannot do in respect of requiring employees to take leave over the Christmas break. Christmas parties also present a number of risks to employers that are too often only thought about after the event.
