However, a busy boss like you have no time to think and buy so many presents. Let’s follow this article to deal with your problem. This article shows suggested gifts and some related shopping tips
1. What should you buy?
This first question is what reasonable gifts are. Based on job, interests and contribution of each employee, you can select a proper present.
- Office supplies
If your employees are officers, the eligible gifts should be office supplies including pen, notebook, card box, table calendar, pen-sheath, paper weight…
- High tech items
High-tech accessories, for example, headphone, USB or memory card are also good gifts for employees who usually work with laptop, PC or tablet computer. Otherwise, you can also give them a solar radio that can be installed on car.
- Buffet/restaurant gift certificate
Buffet/ restaurant gift certificate are really practical presents. Employees and their family can have great meals without payment. For example, a luxurious French dinner with candles for an employee and his/her partner or a buffet party for members of his/her family is an ideal gift.
- Holiday gift certificate
Employees will have three days off on Labor Day. Nothing can be better than a holiday gift certificate for employees whose contribution is really important to your company. Your employees can enjoy wonderful vacation that help them relief from stress of working. Then, they will be able to work effectively.
- Apparels and accessories
Apparels or accessories will be useful gifts for employees, especially women. If you find difficult to know size of employees’ clothes, accessories is a wise choice. For women, handbag and jewelry are my recommendation while sunglasses, wallet and belt are favored by men.
- Cash
Cash is the most practical gift which can be used to buy anything. If cash is your selection, you only transfer your money to employees’ bank account. In addition, you send to them a message which announces your transfer and contain motivated words.
- Supermarket/ shopping coupons
One more realistic gift is supermarket/shopping coupons. You just spend a little time to search for coupons on Internet and order them to delivery to your house. Next, only by giving employees those coupons and postcards with heartfelt words can your employees give many thanks to you
2. What should you remember?
