So are there really any reasons out there that you should take into consideration when thinking about having a New Years bash in the office, well it would seem that there are.

So what are the major reasons?

Drink

Drink is certainly not something that you should mix in the office. There is nothing wrong with having just a few drinks with the office employees but I wouldnt say that you should go too far. I really would suggest you have a couple of drinks with the people you work with as it just improves the mood for the holidays.

Insurance

It had to be mentioned I’m afraid and although the insurance will cover many things that may be damaged from drink, fights and other things I am sure that not all office insurance policies will be happy to fork out hundreds and possibly thousands of pounds because the employees have been careless.

On top of this I will also say that a lot of small business insurance will not even cover you if you spill certain drinks like beer and wine over computers because those types of drinks are not generally acceptable in the work environment.

Just A Bit Of Personal Experience

This year we had our annual Christmas party here, well at least part of it, and it turned out nothing got broken but I think we were lucky and moving on to the pub was a good idea. There were drinks coming around from all over the place and I do not think that the bowling alley beers we had previously helped us at all.

However I will say once again that there is nothing wrong with having a few in office games like pool, gaming or of course poker. The thing is, the only time in which these problems seem to happen is when people just take things a bit.

Other Suggestions?

Other than staying in the office there are actually many options out there to choose from. You could perhaps go for a paid trip to a restaurant and hit the clubs and all of the employees would happily go out if they know their food is paid for. This is also very handy for management as sometimes it allows them to see how people really are outside of work. By no means should they try to get a bit of information from you that they can use against you in the office so be warned about this.
