At Sammons Recruitment Group, we believe in recognising the people who make a real difference – and this December, that means shining a spotlight on our incredible temporary workforce.
To show our appreciation, our Farnham and Hastings teams have been busy creating handmade, personalised Christmas baubles for every temporary worker placed during the festive season. More than just a seasonal gesture, each bauble represents our gratitude and a reminder that their hard work and reliability never go unnoticed.
This initiative is rooted in our people-first ethos – a core value that guides how we treat not just our permanent staff and clients, but everyone we work with. Our temporary workers play a vital role in keeping businesses running smoothly all year round, and even more so during December’s peak demand.
As the need for flexible, high-quality staffing rises in the run-up to Christmas, we want both our clients and candidates to know: We’re here – fully resourced, fully committed, and driven by our values of Quality of Service and Integrity.
Why Personalised Gifts Matter at Christmas
The act of gifting personalised Christmas baubles for our temporary workforce carries real meaning. Personalisation shows intention, gratitude, and thoughtfulness, qualities strongly associated with positive workplace culture and employee loyalty. Seasonal workers often juggle fast-paced environments, shifting schedules, and rising client needs, making recognition even more meaningful during this time of year.
According to research from Mind, gestures of appreciation contribute significantly to positive wellbeing and workplace satisfaction. A small, thoughtful gift like a personalised Christmas bauble helps remind our temporary workforce that they are seen, valued, and integral to our business success.
Our Temporary Workforce: The Backbone of Winter Support
Demand for temporary staffing surges throughout December, particularly across manufacturing, logistics, customer service, supply chain, and administration. This seasonal influx creates operational pressures for many organisations, and our temps are essential in keeping those operations running smoothly.
At Sammons, we take pride in our temporary workforces’ resilience, reliability, and adaptability. They support clients during their busiest period, step into roles at short notice, and contribute immense value to achieving business continuity. These personalised Christmas baubles are a small token of our enormous appreciation.
