Cumbria Chamber of Commerce Podcast


Welcome to the podcast for Cumbria Chamber of Commerce!

Christmas parties can throw up a number of issues for employers.

Office parties are a particularly big hazardous for HR professionals, with many having to decide how to ensure employees behave appropriately and how to deal with worse-for-wear workers who turn up late the morning after the big event.

There are also issues around different religions, holiday requests and post-party hangovers.

One thing is for sure, organisations will need to make sure they are ready for the holiday season.

Julian Whittle, the Chamber's Business Engagement Manager has been speaking to Joanne Holborn, head of employment and employment training at Baines Wilson LLP about how to avoid these seasonal hazards.
