During Diwali, people celebrate in many different ways, and the festival includes joy, light and good foods. It is also traditionally celebrated in the corporate environment, with gifts frequently being the norm. Employers believe that not only does giving gifts boost the wellness and wellbeing of their employees through boosted self-esteem and confidence, but it also directly benefits the company as employees who feel valued are likely to work harder. The trickiest thing can be finding a suitable gift to buy though, and there are various options available.
Sometimes companies do a bulk order of gifts that show the company design of logo (pens, mugs, mouse mats and so on) but these are generally not popular. Traditionally, Diwali gifts from employers used to come in monetary form, or in the form of shares in the company (this also made sure that employees had a vested interest in making sure that the company did well!)
Sometimes companies now hire creative agencies to actually design their Diwali gifts. This can mean that gifts like mobile phones, special coins, toys, kitchenware and home appliances can be given, but can also feature the company logo at the same time. This means that the employees are happy because they have a great new gift and there are also advertising opportunities in it for the employers.
Gift hampers are another popular option. Diwali hampers usually contain products such as sweet, fruit and nuts, and a logo can be incorporated into a gift basket too.
If none of the above is suitable, gift vouchers can also be used. This means that the employee is able to choose something that they really want, rather than having something that simply sits on the desk or in a cupboard and never gets used.
