"Celebrations in the office during the build-up to Christmas, including the office Christmas party, have a mostly positive impact on the workplace. It can help boost morale and promote a warm feeling among colleagues in the workforce. However, it is important to ensure such festivities do not exclude individuals who choose not to celebrate the occasion because of their own religious beliefs as this can marginalise them and have a negative impact that far outlasts the festive season."
