5 Employee Holiday Gifts Under $50

It’s almost that time of year again; the holidays are right around the corner. Time to start thinking of ways to show your employees how much you appreciate the time and effort they have and continue to put into your organization. A nice holiday gift can go a long way toward showing your people your appreciation. But what do you give?

Don’t know where to begin? We’ve created a selection of items to help get you started. Here are five items your employees are sure to enjoy. And the best part? They’re all under $50.

Yoga Beginners Kit

Amazon Fire TV Stick with Voice Remote

Access movies, videos, games and apps in seconds all on your TV. This streaming stick works fast for buffer-free streaming of your favorite content and includes the Alexa Voice Remote for hands-free commands.

Sure, getting every employee the same gift might seem fair, but each employee is a unique and will respond differently to your chosen gift: some may not have use for it, some may absolutely adore it, and unfortunately, some may just dislike it altogether. With only a single option, it’s impossible to please everyone.

The best way to ensure everyone goes home happy is to offer a variety of options: instead of a single, uniform gift for your employees, present to them an assortment of items of similar or equal value (like we’ve done above). That way, your people get to choose the item they want most.

Be sure to establish the assortment early on to give employees time to review their options and make their choice. Your upcoming holiday party is sure to be a huge success when everyone gets to take home their selected gift.

While this method does require a bit more work, your employees will greatly appreciate the extra time and effort you’ve put in to make this holiday season a little more special.
