Inclusive Christmas gifts<\/span><\/h2>\n

Christmas gifts\u2014every year, the topic of conversation. Admittedly, it\u2019s hard to get it right for everyone. At the very least, let\u2019s avoid completely missing the mark on inclusivity.<\/span><\/p>\n

Do you go for a package with alcohol and meat, or not? A generously filled gift is appreciated, but in an inclusive organization, it\u2019s something to think about. Your employees come from different cultures and religious backgrounds, which can add extra decision stress. Want to play it safe? Offer employees a choice from various options: with or without alcohol, with or without meat, gluten-free, lactose-free, and so on. Another option is a gift voucher, allowing everyone to create their own package. A third option is to choose one neutral package, inclusive and suitable for everyone. The choice is yours\u2014of course, we\u2019re not making it entirely easy!<\/span><\/p>\n

Merry Christmas or Happy Holidays?<\/span><\/h2>\n

The choice between \u201cChristmas\u201d and \u201cthe holidays\u201d may seem minor, but it can make a big difference. This is especially important for a multicultural organization. After all, not everyone celebrates Christmas, so we recommend opting for a broader and more inclusive term. Choose a phrase that encompasses all December celebrations, such as \u201cHappy Holidays\u201d or \u201cSeason\u2019s Greetings.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Three kisses or a handshake?<\/span><\/h2>\n

During Covid, we thought we were done with this dilemma\u2014and nobody seemed to mind. All the stranger, then, that the three typically Dutch kisses have returned to our society, especially for birthdays but even more so for New Year\u2019s greetings!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In the days following January 1st, colleagues greet each other with New Year\u2019s wishes. A lovely tradition, but often quite awkward. Who do you greet, and who not? Or maybe not at all? Some colleagues may not be used to\u2014or comfortable with\u2014physical contact in the workplace. Make a conscious and inclusive choice. As an employer, you can take the lead by offering a New Year\u2019s greeting with a handshake or a simple nod. Want to go big? Then give some attention to this topic in, for example, your company newsletter!<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

You can learn to decorate.<\/span><\/h2>\n

We\u2019re not done yet! The holidays, of course, call for festive decorations. Have you ever considered that our traditional Christmas tree is religious in origin? If your organization wants to go all the way, opt for inclusive and neutral decorations that aren\u2019t directly tied to religious celebrations. It may not always be easy, but it\u2019s a rewarding challenge.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The office party!<\/span><\/h2>\n

Finally, the Christmas or New Year\u2019s office party! Here too, it\u2019s important to consider whether you want a celebration with a religious or neutral character. A Christmas party in the festive December month is, of course, very enjoyable. A (neutral) New Year\u2019s party, on the other hand, is just as fun and often easier to schedule. In January, both professional and personal calendars are generally less busy, making it easier for everyone to join in inclusively!<\/span><\/p>\n

Want to do things completely differently? Read more about an <\/span>inclusive party<\/span><\/a> in our previous blog.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The holidays also require awareness, respect, and thoughtful consideration from you and within your organization. By taking different backgrounds, traditions, and preferences into account, everyone can celebrate in a pleasant way. Use this holiday season to strengthen workplace connections and give the coming year a positive start.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

On behalf of all employees at Recrout<\/a>: Happy Holidays and a prosperous New Year!<\/span><\/p>\n
