swish | Do you think it's ideal to pay for Christmas lunch at work, shouldn't the company foot the bill? |
Throughout my work experience, I have never had to pay for Christmas lunch, the company always foots the bills and sometimes give a bonus to all staff. In my present place of work where I have been working for a couple of years now, they expect staff to pay for Christmas lunch. Shouldn't this be an opportunity for the organnisation to say thank you to staff tor all their hardwork. |

Unfortunately, there are many companies and organizations that are clueless when it comes to employee morale. They don't realize that even small gestures are very much appreciated. At least you know what you're dealing with.... |

You definitely should NOT have to pay. What a tight company! Why dont u have a word with all your colleagues and suggest u boycot the lunch and tell the bosses that on the low wages they pay u all that u cannot possibly afford to foot the company christmas lunch bill too. Cheapskates! |

Out of order! My old job did that too, it should be a way for the company to thank their staff for their hard work...I guess it shows who the cheap companies are. I would boycotte the party if I had to pay (unless you enjoy the company of your colleagues) |

You will find that the directors save the money so that they can have a large annual bonus or a large salary rise in the following year..... |

Hi Eternity >
Of course the company should foot the bill!
I used to give out a Christmas turkey & a bottle of booze to all.
To say thanks for a good year, what the heck.
In the scheme of things, it was a small expense.
If the company are poorly in the economics department, perhaps time to give the Managing Director a miniature Scotch, and move on.
Bob, |

I prefer that employees (salaried and hourly) have the mind-set that the company only owes them what was agreed upon. You agree to go to work and trade your time and effort for a specified dollar amount. So if you go to work all the company "owes" you is this monetary payment for time worked.
If you find this unsatisfactory, you must negotiate your fringe benefits into your contract. (Good Luck).
If you work for a company than for pete's sake "work for them"
if you do not like to "work" for them then leave. If all you have to gripe about is paying for Christmas lunch, you probably do not have it all that bad. |

i suppose it depends on where your working. i worked for a company once that didn't have a dinner party at all.. they gave a box of turtles for us to share..
we all went out to a nice place for dinner on our own.. which wasn't to bad.. :) |

you should send an email round to boycott it until they offer to pay |

Well it depends who you work for.... If its an investment bank that is very stingy. If its a charity or Local council employer Im afraid their budgets arent that extravagant! it is taxpayers money I guess! |

It would be nice if the company paid for Christmas Lunch but who pays should be immaterial because you go to have a good time with your work mates! |
