Corporate Gift Ideas for Sick Employees

Custom Wellness Gifts for Employees

Cold and flu season is upon us, and it is a hectic time in many workplaces. Rotating sickness can put a strain on work schedules and deadlines, and employees may be tempted to try to come to work while sick. However, it is vitally important for employers to encourage their team members to stay home when they’re showing signs of illness. Bosses should lead by example by using sick leave themselves, and they should provide flexible leave options—including for chronic illnesses and lengthy hospital stays. Another way to encourage a health-focused work environment is to provide custom, wellness-based gifts for sick employees.

Corporate Gift Ideas for Sick Employees

What do you gift to a sick employee? Merchology can add your company logo to a wide variety of wellness focused products that will provide a bit of comfort and tranquility while your colleague recovers. Below, we’ll explore a few of our top choices for corporate gifts that will be sure to lift the spirits of your ill employees.

Company TLC Wellness MerchBox

You can send a gift box full of self-care items with our TLC Wellness Merchbox. The standard box includes five logo-branded feel-better gifts:

• This custom Take Care Kit by Modern Sprout includes a kit for growing lavender, a meditation hourglass, and an essential oil roller. 
• This branded Ultra Plush Blanket by Port Authority will keep your sick employees warm and cozy while they get the rest they need.
• MiiR’s custom insulated 12 oz mug is perfect for sipping on hot tea or chicken soup, keeping contents warm for up to 12 hours.
• SnugZ’s Plastic Letter Board  is great way to give a “get well soon” message.
• A Book Journal with your logo by Moleskine will help your employees pass the time during their recovery.

As with all of our MerchBoxes, we can work with you to customize the box to fit your needs and budget.

Embroidered Zusa White with Charcoal Plush Siesta Blanket

This custom plush blanket’s high-pile fleece and inviting waffle texture make it the ideal accessory for sick-day naps. It can also provide comfort and warmth in chilly hospital rooms and treatment centers. The material is so buttery soft that you would never guess that it’s made of recycled plastic. By purchasing from sustainable brand Zusa, you’re supporting the health of your employee AND of the planet. Your logo is embroidered on the blanket’s corner.

Branded Brumate Matte Black Rehydration Mini 16oz Water Bottle

It’s the age-old advice for any sickness: rest and drink plenty of fluids. You can help your ill employees stay hydrated by giving water bottles for your corporate gifts. This branded Brumate Rehydration Mini Water Bottle will keep their water or sports drink cold, and the straw lid makes it easy to sip on throughout the day. And after their recovery, they can use the bottle while exercising, traveling, or running errands—displaying your laser-engraved logo everywhere they take it.

Custom SnugZ Tranquility Ultimate Spa Set

Who doesn’t enjoy a bit of pampering, especially while feeling under the weather? This custom spa set includes four products, all infused with the Tranquility essential oil blend of lavender and chamomile:

• Candle

• Bath salts
• Two 15 mL essential oil droppers

These custom spa sets make for thoughtful get-better-soon gifts. Your logo is printed on each item’s label, and it is also laser-engraved on the attractive wooden gift box.

• Cup of Sunshine Tea
