Tips to avoid HR issues at the Christmas Party

Last Updated On:

The workplace Christmas party is a special opportunity for teams to come together and celebrate their achievements over the past year. However, it can also create an environment where HR issues can occur. In this HR Talk, we discuss tips to avoid HR issues at the Christmas party. This was an informal discussion between the team that we found really useful and wanted to share, however we apologise for the sound quality.

So, how can you avoid HR issues at the Christmas party?

To support you in ensuring your Christmas party goes ahead without any HR issues, we discuss what happens when the workplace party reaches the Employment Tribunal.

Fitzgerald’s CEO & Founder, Lucy Fitzgerald, and Managing Director, Monica Wray, are joined by our Consultant Employment Solicitor, Tim Davies, to discuss how employers can avoid HR issues occurring at the Christmas party. 

We address examples of what happens when a workplace party reaches the Employment Tribunal in the following cases:

  • Livesey v Parker Merchanting Ltd
  • Williams and others v Whitbread Beer Co
  • Bellman v Northampton Recruitment Limited

We hope you found this discussion useful. If you would like support with managing issues following a workplace party, please do not hesitate to contact the team on 0330 223 5253 or office@fitzgeraldhr.co.uk
