In 2020, the employer-employee relationship was forever altered. The COVID-19 outbreak disrupted industries, halted travel, and changed the way employees work. Employers have been forced to adapt to a tight employment market and workers’ needs. Some companies have decided to offer remote work opportunities and flexible schedules. With work from home becoming the norm, employers and employees have noticed a significant lack of the office culture that existed before the pandemic.

The gatherings have boosted office morale and provided a safe outlet for employees to reconnect with their coworkers.
