Celebrate the Season Safely With Your Staff

It's the most wonderful time of the year for gathering your professional team to reflect on the year's progress, blow off some year-end steam, and have the chance to enjoy each other's company outside the pressures of the work day. Be aware, though, that not all holiday parties are merry and bright. To make sure your party is a jolly one, Jack Stone Insurance Agency would like to offer these guidelines:

• Make sure that your party venue is safe, with clearly marked exits, good handicap accessibility, and proper lighting and flooring. Ask your venue for a certificate of insurance to make sure that you have coverage for any liabilities and will not have to dip into the company coffers.
• Hire professional bartenders and give them the authority to stop service to anyone who has had too much. Be sure snacks and non-alcoholic beverages are available to counteract the effects of drinking, and stop alcohol service at least an hour before the party is scheduled to end.
• Do all you can to make the party fun for everyone. Emphasize that attendance at the party is optional and make sure that if you name or theme the party, it is not linked to a specific religion.
• Should any complaints be made about any of your team's behavior at the event, take them seriously. Handle them as you would any other workplace incident.
