How do you observe Halloween at the office without finding yourself on the unemployment line on November 1st?
Tip number one is to know your audience. One expert says it’s lot like picking out an outfit for the Christmas party.
“Don’t wear anything that’s too risqué that you are going to regret wearing the next day,” says Patricia Hazelwood, Director of Permanent Placement Services with the staffing firm Robert Half International. “Come the next day, Halloween’s all over, you’ve still got a professional career to look after.”
She adds your workplace may have some sensitivities you may not be aware of, “[Be] mindful of what’s going on around you and neither do you want to make a political statement or a religious statement that’s going to offend your audience,” she explains.
