About this episode
Tis the season to celebrate the end of the year with your workmates on the company dime.
But, are the days of huge bashes and unlimited bar tabs long gone?
They’ve always been high risk and loaded with legal landmines... with employees toeing the line between loose networking and plain unprofessional.
So, should companies ditch the drama for direct deposits? Or is there still a little magic to the traditional Christmas work do?
Today on The Front Page, AUT Professor of Management Candice Harris is with us to take a look back at work parties past, present, and yet to come.
