How do you celebrate holidays inclusively at work? 

The best workplace celebrations make everyone feel welcome. That means recognizing a mix of cultural, historical, and fun holidays that reflect your team’s diversity. 

Celebrating holidays through food encourages storytelling—employees can share traditions, favorite recipes, and cultural insights, making the workplace feel more connected. You can even show inclusivity by what you're offering. For example, make sure there is a variety of options that appeal to a range of dietary preferences, values, and goals. 

Why celebrate holidays at work? 

A celebration, even as simple as sharing an Oreo on National Oreo Day, can spark conversations that might not happen otherwise. When employees have a reason to gather, they build relationships that go beyond the office breakroom. 

Celebrating holidays at work isn’t just about the snacks (though they help); it’s about fostering engagement, boosting morale, and creating moments that make the workplace feel more like a community.

Conclusion

March is full of opportunities to bring people together over food, fun, and shared experiences. Whether you’re celebrating a month-long observance or a snack-centric holiday, embracing these moments creates a more engaged and connected workplace. So stock up on Oreos, stir up your ramen, and get ready to make March a month of delicious celebrations!
