Therefore, the right time for greeting your friends with traditional holiday messages is during religious holidays.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, <strong>it would be nice to know more about the different holidays, to be sure that we honor dear people who celebrate them or the country we live in.<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moreover, knowledge of holiday customs will save us from accidentally offending someone by greeting them for holidays they do not even celebrate.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are some <strong>widely-known religious holidays<\/strong> when we could use the simple phrase <em>\u201cHappy holidays\u201d<\/em>:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Christmas<\/strong> \u2014 It is the celebration of the day when Jesus Christ was born. Christian churches that use the Gregorian calendar celebrate it on the 25th of December, while those that use the Julian calendar celebrate it on the 7th of January.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Eid al-Adha<\/strong> \u2014 It honors Ibrahim\u2019s sacrifice of his son Ismail on God\u2019s command. The exact date when it falls shifts each year, so it is best to check it before sending any greeting messages.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Hanukkah<\/strong> \u2014 The celebration of the Jewish reconquest of Jerusalem and Herod\u2019s temple. It is time-shifting, and according to the Gregorian calendar, it falls between November and late December.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Vesak<\/strong> \u2014 The honoring of Buddha\u2019s birth and life. It falls on the first full moon day in May.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, bank holidays differ from country to country. A few of the best-known bank holidays are:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>New Year\u2019s Eve,&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Armistice Day,&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Thanksgiving, and&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>May Day.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>As you can probably guess, this article will focus mostly on New Year\u2019s Eve \u2014 since that\u2019s where most people\u2019s minds go when they think of the holiday season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group pro-tip\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<p>\ud83d\udca1 <strong>Pumble Pro Tip<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To learn more about multiculturalism in the workplace and how to preserve it, check out our posts:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/pumble.com\/blog\/diversity-in-communications\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">A guide to diversity, equity, and inclusion in workplace communications <\/a>&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/pumble.com\/blog\/cross-cultural-communication\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">How to perfect cross-cultural communication in the workplace<\/a>&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"custom-btn\"><a href=\"https:\/\/pumble.com\/register\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Share the holiday spirit \u2014 exchange holiday greetings with your team over Pumble<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"is-it-professional-to-say-happy-holidays\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is it professional to say happy holidays?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There is an ongoing debate on whether it is appropriate or not to say happy holidays to your colleagues and employees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Furthermore, according to the author and journalist Melissa Mohr, holiday greeting messages have become <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/think\/opinion\/using-merry-christmas-or-happy-holidays-no-longer-about-putting-ncna1106181\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">badges of political identification<\/a>. Hence, people are worried whether their holiday greetings for employees or colleagues will be well-accepted.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Frankly speaking, there is nothing bad in sending a <em>happy holidays<\/em> message. It is a well-meaning and enthusiastic message. Moreover, it <a href=\"https:\/\/cake.com\/blog\/respectful-communication-in-the-workplace\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">shows respect<\/a> to your colleagues or employees.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, yes, <strong>it is professional to say happy holidays to your coworkers<\/strong>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We recommend sticking to simple <em>happy holidays <\/em>wishes if you work in a larger community where some people might not celebrate religious holidays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, if you know that all of your colleagues are religious, feel free to use religious messages like <em>\u201cMerry Christmas!\u201d<\/em>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, if you work in a multicultural company, be aware that celebrating Christmas or, for example, Eid Al-Adha isn\u2019t the norm for everyone. Therefore, you should <strong>take some time to learn the customs of other religious groups that are represented in your company<\/strong>, as well.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group pro-tip\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<p>\ud83d\udca1 <strong>Pumble Pro Tip<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To learn how to become closer to your colleagues and learn more about them, check out our blog post:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/pumble.com\/blog\/empathic-communication\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Fostering empathetic communication in the workplace<\/a>&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"how-do-you-say-happy-holidays-in-a-formal-email-or-a-message\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">How do you say happy holidays in a formal email or a message?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Holiday messages should be tailored to the type of person you send them to.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, <a href=\"https:\/\/pumble.com\/blog\/formal-communication\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">be more formal<\/a> with customers you do not know much about.

We can use them because we feel close to the people we send them to.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, there are a few things to bear in mind before sending these holiday messages.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Firstly, in a holiday message to colleagues you are close with, include best wishes for families only if you are sure they have families or are on good terms with them.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We do not want our carelessness to ruin their holiday spirit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Secondly, we mentioned multiple choices above. You can use <em>Merry Christmas<\/em> or <em>Happy Holidays<\/em> messages. If you choose the former, you have to be sure that your friend is Christian because you do not want anyone to be offended because of your ignorance.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, if you are not 100% sure if your colleague celebrates religious holidays, stick to the standard <em>Happy Holidays<\/em> message.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, if you think it is appropriate, add some more specific wishes to your colleagues i.e. to get a promotion, buy their own apartment\/car, do something from their bucket list, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<div class=\"banner banner-light pumble-gradient-templates\">\n    <div class=\"banner-text lg:pr-[6rem]\">\n        <span class=\"h4 text-lg translation-block mb-0\">Improve work communication<\/span>\n        <p class=\"translation-block mt-1 mb-3\">Exchange well wishes with your coworkers on Pumble \u2014 the all-in-one communication app.<\/p>\n\n        <div class=\"banner-buttons d-flex gap-4 align-items-center translation-block justify-content-center justify-content-sm-start\">\n            <a class=\"bg-white rounded px-3 py-1 text-gray-dark\" href=\"https:\/\/pumble.com\/solutions\" target=\"_blank\">Solutions<\/a>\n\n                            <a class=\"button-2\" href=\"https:\/\/pumble.com\/register\" target=\"_blank\">Register<\/a>\n                    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n\n    <div class=\"banner-image banner-image-middle \">\n        <picture>\n            <source srcset=\"https:\/\/pumble.com\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/cake-blog\/theme\/images\/banners\/templates@2x.png 2x\" alt=\"Illustration\"  media=\"(min-width: 1022px)\" \/>\n            <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pumble.com\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/cake-blog\/theme\/images\/banners\/templates.png\"  alt=\"Illustration\" \/>\n        <\/picture>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n    \n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"holiday-messages-to-colleagues-you-do-not-know-so-well\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Holiday messages to colleagues you do not know so well<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We all have colleagues we do not know so well, or even at all. We know their names, maybe their positions in a company, and that\u2019s it. Nothing more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, some would say that it would be slightly awkward to send them direct messages for holidays. On the other hand, maybe that one message you send for a holiday can bring you two closer.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Needless to say, it is up to you to choose the right approach.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, we would recommend you use <a href=\"https:\/\/pumble.com\/features\/channels\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">team channels<\/a> on communication and <a href=\"https:\/\/pumble.com\/team-collaboration-software\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">collaboration apps like Pumble<\/a> by CAKE.com.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A short and clear message sent in the group chat will be polite, and it can earn you respect from others.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"672\" src=\"https:\/\/pumble.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Maya-wishes-everyone-in-the-Pumble-group-chat-happy-holidays.png\" alt=\"Maya wishes everyone in the Pumble group chat Happy Holidays \n\" class=\"wp-image-10741\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pumble.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Maya-wishes-everyone-in-the-Pumble-group-chat-happy-holidays.png 1200w, https:\/\/pumble.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Maya-wishes-everyone-in-the-Pumble-group-chat-happy-holidays-300x168.png 300w, https:\/\/pumble.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Maya-wishes-everyone-in-the-Pumble-group-chat-happy-holidays-1024x573.png 1024w, https:\/\/pumble.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Maya-wishes-everyone-in-the-Pumble-group-chat-happy-holidays-768x430.png 768w, https:\/\/pumble.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Maya-wishes-everyone-in-the-Pumble-group-chat-happy-holidays-18x10.png 18w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Maya wishes everyone in the Pumble group chat Happy Holidays<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-spacer\" style=\"height: 20px;\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\u00a0<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are some additional examples of messages that you can use in direct messages or group chats to express holiday greetings to colleagues you are not so close with:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><em>\u201cI wish you all joy and happiness in the next year.

Sending the cards can be time-consuming, and it can take a lot of energy and money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, some business circles still appreciate the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.britannica.com\/topic\/greeting-card\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">symbolism holiday cards carry<\/a>, such as showing affection and gratitude.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Furthermore, it seems that holiday greeting cards are becoming a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/lifestyle\/home\/millennials-holiday-card-tradition\/2021\/12\/07\/1a116458-464d-11ec-95dc-5f2a96e00fa3_story.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">new craze<\/a> among Millennials.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, with goodwill, <strong>there is no particular reason why we should give up on holiday greeting cards<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have enough time, choose a few colleagues\/employees\/customers, and create holiday cards for them.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After all, there\u2019s nothing like putting pen to paper and writing down a personalized holiday message.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"option-2-a-company-holiday-party-why-not\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Option #2: A company holiday party, why not?&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A few days before writing this article, I got an invitation to the company\u2019s New Year\u2019s party.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, I accepted it, as did the majority of my colleagues, because we wanted to meet with each other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After I received the invitation, I thought a bit about the importance of a company holiday party.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Namely, during the last few years, many companies have shifted to <a href=\"https:\/\/pumble.com\/blog\/hybrid-remote-work-models\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">hybrid and remote work models<\/a>. Hence, their employees couldn\u2019t hang out as much as they would want.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, company holiday parties have become perfect opportunities to have an authentic conversation and show personally how much other people mean to you.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Furthermore, events like holiday parties promote a <a href=\"https:\/\/pumble.com\/blog\/how-to-nurture-a-positive-company-culture-tips\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> positive company culture<\/a> and improve team cohesion. But, most importantly \u2014 everybody has fun!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s an example of how an organizer can use a <a href=\"https:\/\/pumble.com\/team-communication-app\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/pumble.com\/team-communication-app\">team communication app<\/a> to promote the company&#8217;s New Year\u2019s party.
