How to observe Hanukkah in a work environment
Hanukkah is the eight-day Jewish celebration also known as the festival of lights. The date for this festival changes according to the lunar calendar, but it always begins in November or December.
While most workplaces do not observe this holiday with paid time off, it’s important to send a message to your employees to mark the holiday.
Jewish employees may wish to share some of their cultural celebrations with their team, but for many people, religion and practices are personal, so employees should ask questions and share respectfully and appropriately.
A few ways Hanukkah is celebrated include lighting the Menorah. The Hanukkiah, a candelabra holding 9 candles. There are 8 candles representing the 8 days the Temple lanterns blazed and one candle, the shamash, that is used to light the others.
Jewish family and friends sing songs, spin tips, eat tasty fried foods, and share chocolate coins as part of their celebration as well. Your team may enjoy celebrating with Jewish coworkers by sharing cultural foods and learning more about Hanukkah.
