25 Corporate holiday gift ideas for employees to foster engagement 

Finding the right holiday gift for your team can be tricky—but it’s a great way to show appreciation and boost morale before the year ends. Whether for practical, personalized, or fun, here are 25 corporate holiday gift ideas your employees will love.

1. رفع مستوى الترفيه الداخلي 

A big hit amongst employees who can’t stop binge-watching during lunchtime. Gifts ranging from crumbs of OTT subscriptions to a plethora of entertainment experiences that enhance the in-home experience are a timeless hit in the new wish list of holiday gifts to staff. And yes, a big-screen TV or PC monitor would do the job of gaming, movies, and the grind. 

Great for employees who love binge-watching, consider gifting OTT subscriptions or even a high-end monitor. Empuls offers digital gift cards for platforms like Netflix, Prime Video, and Spotify, making it easy to deliver entertainment directly.

2. الوقت الإضافي 

نجاح كبير بين الموظفين الذين "يمرضون" بشكل ملائم في اليوم التالي لعيد الميلاد حتى يوم رأس السنة الجديدة! فغالبًا ما تؤدي الحياة العملية إلى تأجيل الإجازة الحقيقية غير المرتبطة بالعمل. إن قضاء أسبوع من الاسترخاء أو المغامرة الخالصة هو شيء نتوق إليه جميعًا، ولكن المواعيد النهائية وأعباء العمل عادة ما تقف عائقًا في طريقنا. 

من الهدايا المثالية للموظفين في الأعياد منحهم بعض الإجازات الإضافية ومشاهدتهم وهم يعودون وقد استعادوا نشاطهم واستعدوا للاندفاع. 

3. أرسل لهم حزمة رعاية 

انشر بعض البهجة في العطلة من خلال صندوق هدايا منسق للموظفين يتم شحنه مباشرةً إلى عتبة بابهم. في بعض الأحيان قد يكون العثور على هدية محددة للموظف تحدياً حقيقياً. مع خدمة صندوق الهدايا، يمكنك اختيار أفضل حزمة رعاية منسقة لزميلك. يمكنك حتى السماح لهم بإنشاء صندوق هدايا خاص بهم! 

4. امنحهم دفعة معرفية 

يعد هذا الأمر مثاليًا لأولئك الذين يحبون مشاركة أحدث شهاداتهم على LinkedIn، حيث إن هدية المعرفة هي الطريقة المثلى لدعم نموهم وشغفهم بالتعلم. يتوق الكثير من الناس إلى وقت الفراغ لتعلم مهارات جديدة، وموسم الأعياد هو التوقيت المثالي لإضافة أمجاد جديدة إلى ملفه الشخصي. 

5. زوج جيد من سماعات الرأس القديمة 

A perfect gift for employees who start their day with Spotify, headphones have become the ultimate symbol of personal space in the workplace. They are no longer frowned upon, but they help boost focus and productivity. A high-quality pair makes for a thoughtful holiday gift, with plenty of budget-friendly options to suit your team’s needs. 

6. تذاكر الفعاليات أو الحفلات الموسيقية أو المسرح 

‍Experiential gifts are simply amazing and leave an impact no other gift can. Your employees come back recharged; the best part is that it’s always inscribed in their minds. We all remember the first time our employer took us out on a field trip or a vacation. It’s a timeless memory—and a perfect holiday gift for employees. 

7. ديكورات المكاتب لا تبطل موضتها أبدًا 

مفضلة لدى الموظفين الذين يفخرون بجماليات مساحة العمل الخاصة بهم! فكّر في إهداء إكسسوارات مريحة مثل محوّل المكتب الواقف لتعزيز الراحة، أو وسادة مكتب جلدية عالية الجودة لإضفاء لمسة أنيقة، أو لوحة اسم منقوشة خصيصاً لإضافة لمسة شخصية. إن إعداد العمل المصمم بشكل جيد لا يعزز الإنتاجية فحسب، بل يجعل كل يوم عمل أكثر إلهاماً. 

8. بطانية مريحة/مروحة صغيرة 

For those constantly battling office temperatures, whether too close to the AC vent or sitting right under the sun. Some spend their summers squinting at their screens with the sun glaring, while others brace for winter with an AC blasting above their heads. A cozy desk blanket is the perfect fix for the perpetually chilly, while a compact USB fan can relieve those stuck in the heat. Comfort at work is key, and these small gestures can make all the difference! 

9. جلسة تدليل في المنتجعات الصحية والصالونات 

Is there anyone who doesn’t like to be pampered? Spa and salon vouchers are the proverbial favorite gifts from an employer because most employees find it too luxurious to spend their hard-earned greens on it. Considering that, a spa, salon, or mani-pedi session voucher would always find takers. 

10. دفتر ملاحظات مخصص 

هذه الفكرة تلقى رواجاً كبيراً بين المتدربين لأن لديهم الكثير لتدوينه. قد تكون الهواتف المحمولة قد حلت محل الخربشة، لكن لا يزال الكثيرون يفضلون تدوين الأشياء بين الحين والآخر في دفاترهم. من الأفضل تقديم هدية العطلات هذه بعلامة تجارية تحمل شعار شركتك واسم المستلم منقوشاً عليها. 

12. بعض معدات السفر الأنيقة 

نعلم جميعًا مجموعة الأشخاص الذين يسافرون على نطاق واسع لحضور المؤتمرات، وحضور الندوات والمؤتمرات، وتناول العشاء مع العملاء، وهم دائمًا على جدول أعمالهم. ستكون هدايا العطلات مثل بطاقات الأمتعة المخصصة، ووسائد السفر، والبطانيات، ومجموعات الشحن مثالية لهم. هذه العناصر ليست فقط سهلة نسبيًا على ميزانية الشركة ولكن الناس دائمًا ما يقدرونها أثناء التنقل. 

13. اللوازم المكتبية المخصصة 

بالنسبة لأولئك الذين يطلبون من المسؤول قلمًا جديدًا كل يوم، فإن القرطاسية المخصصة تقطع شوطًا طويلاً في جعل القوى العاملة لديك تشعر بأنها مميزة. ستكون الحقيبة الصغيرة المليئة بالأقلام وأقلام الرصاص وغيرها من مستلزمات المكتب التي تحمل شعار الشركة مثالية لتسيير الأمور كسلة هدايا لموظفيك في العطلات.  

Pro Tip: Ask employees what they’d love to receive instead of guessing! A quick survey helps you pick gifts they’ll genuinely appreciate while keeping the element of surprise. A “Get to Know You” survey would help make it fun and engaging. 

14. منظّم مكتب للمهووسين بالأناقة 

Perfect for employees who thrive in a clutter-free workspace. A sleek, well-designed desk accessory—like a standing desk converter or an ergonomic monitor stand- adds function and style to their setup. Branded with your company’s logo, it’s a thoughtful yet budget-friendly gift that keeps their workspace tidy while reinforcing a sense of belonging.  

15. بطاقات الهدايا لا تفشل أبدًا في التسليم 

A big hit amongst employees who’ve got everything else. Amazon, Best Buy, Walmart—take your pick or let your employees choose their kind of gift card. Gift cards straight up get topped up into the user’s account, and they can shop for whatever they want. Or you can leave it to them to choose their gift card by offering Xoxo Points, which can be redeemed for gift cards. 

Let employees choose their ideal gift from over 8,000 brands by awarding Xoxo points on Empuls. These points can be redeemed for gift cards across Amazon, Best Buy, Walmart, and more.

16. جهاز لوحي أو قارئ كتب إلكترونية 

هدية مدروسة لعشاق القراءة الذين لا يفوتون أي اجتماع لنادي الكتاب. أما بالنسبة لأولئك الذين لديهم دائماً قراءة جديدة على مكتبهم، فإن قارئ الكتب الإلكترونية هو الحل الأمثل - مما يقلل من معاناة القراءة في وقت متأخر من الليل والرحلات إلى متاجر الكتب.  

في حين أن الأجهزة اللوحية وقارئات الكتب الإلكترونية يمكن أن تكون استثماراً ثميناً بعض الشيء، إلا أنها تشكل هدية استثنائية للعطلات تستمر في العطاء، حيث تقدم قصصاً لا نهاية لها في متناول أيديهم. 

17. إحدى هوايات موظفيك 

هدية مثالية للفنانين والكتاب وجامعي مجموعات القطارات وأي شخص لديه شغف بالمشروع. للهدايا التي تركز على الهوايات طريقة فريدة لإحياء الاهتمامات القديمة وإلهام الإبداع. سواء كانت كراسة رسم عالية الجودة، أو نموذجاً من إصدار هواة جمع النماذج، أو مجموعة كتابة مخصصة، يمكن لهذه الهدايا أن تعيد ربط شخص ما بهواية كان يرغب في إعادة النظر فيها. 

A study by Matthew J. Zawadzki titled "Real-Time Associations Between Engaging in Leisure and Daily Health and Well-Being" indicates that hobbies and leisure activities can have numerous health and psychological benefits like immediate stress relief, improved focus, and a high happiness quotient. Undoubtedly, hobby-centric gifts are highly memorable and enjoyable for the receiver. 

Give an artist a brush and some oil pastels and watch them return to their sketchbook or give a writer a rusty notepad and watch the melancholic poems flow by. Empower your workforce’s inner talents by allowing them a gift that resonates with their hobbies.
