December Holidays? Here’s How to Prepare Your Staff & Stay in Control

The December season in Kenya means one thing for employers:
Travel, visitors, peak business — or all of the above.

While your schedule fills up, your team may be preparing to leave, ask for time off, or get overwhelmed.

The question is: Will your home or business run smoothly… or fall apart?

Let’s prepare now — not on the 22nd.


🎄 Common December Mistakes Employers Make

  • No clear leave schedule or off-day plan
  • Extra workload dumped on whoever is available
  • No backup staff for when help travels
  • Rushing to replace workers at the last minute
  • Assuming “they’ll understand” without communication

How to Prepare Your Staff for December the Smart Way

1. Discuss December Plans Early
Don’t assume. Ask your staff:

“Do you plan to travel? When do you need time off?”

2. Create a Work Calendar
Mark who’s on duty, who’s off, and where you might need support.

3. Adjust Pay or Responsibilities Fairly
If someone is staying behind while others travel, show appreciation with a bonus or flexible rest in January.

4. Prepare Replacements in Advance
Whether you run a small shop, salon, or household — don’t wait for someone to leave first. Have a name ready.

5. Train Staff for Busy Periods
If you expect more customers, guests, or kids at home — brief your team early. Don’t spring surprises on them.
