Bring Your Family to Work Events
“Bring your family to work day”, also called “take your kids to work day”, is an annual event designed to teach kids about the professional world and highlight the importance of a work/family balance. It was originally designed to challenge preconceived gender roles in the workplace, including those that relate to the work/family dynamic, and most events hold to these values to this day. When planning your “bring your family to work day” event, it is important to keep these ideas in mind. Show kids that your company is the kind of place that values people regardless of gender and encourages employees to have a healthy balance between their work and family lives. At Event Solutions, we can help you plan a day that highlights all of your company’s best features and leaves both boys and girls feeling inspired by the work you do.
Good Planning Makes for a Great Day
Bring your family to work day is officially held on the fourth Thursday of every April. You’ll want to start planning your event at least two months in advance, if possible. That means forming a committee within your workplace or contacting Event Solutions to begin the planning process. From there, you’ll want to coordinate with your employees to make sure that the schools are notified and give approval for the children to be absent. Our professional event planners can take care of this for you; just provide us with the schools that need to be notified to ensure that everything goes smoothly. Once we get a headcount, we can begin planning all the fun events that will get them interested in the possibilities of your profession.
