As the holiday season approaches, workplaces often shift into a more festive rhythm. For businesses operating or celebrating within private office suites, this time of year presents an opportunity to celebrate thoughtfully while maintaining the professionalism and respect that a shared office environment requires. With intentional choices, holiday cheer can enhance workplace culture without disrupting productivity.

More than 80% of employees admit to experiencing high stress during the holiday season. Several workplace and non-workplace factors contribute to the heightened stress among employees.
