Bonus Tips
But wait there’s still more… Here are a few helpful tips for finding the perfect Christmas gift ideas for your work colleagues.
How To Write Christmas Message For Coworkers
When it comes to your colleagues, you should try to write something fun or professional. It also depends on how well you know them. Merry Christmas (Name), Have a great Christmas break and a wonderful new year to you and your family. I hope this gift brings you a little laughter and joy to welcome the new year. Make sure to keep it short and not too personal. Try NOT to include anything about religion or politics in your message.
How To Personally Give Your Christmas Wishes To Colleagues
Christmas is a well know celebration, especially within the Catholic and Christian communities. Unfortunately, not everyone celebrates it for its religious background. So you should always give your wishes in a safe and non-offensive way if you are unsure of the person’s religious background. You can also show your appreciation if they have helped you throughout the year. You could go with the following wishes;
Have a great Christmas break and have a safe and happy new year.
I hope you and your family have a safe and happy Christmas break and may the new year bring you happiness and joy.
Should I Give Christmas Cards To Work Colleagues?
This is highly dependent on your coworker’s religious beliefs. If they don’t celebrate then a card would be unnecessary. However, if you know they celebrate then yes pick out a standard card without too much humour or political agender behind them.
