Don't be a scrooge on Xmas decorations, says HSE

Employers who ban their workers from putting up Christmas decorations in the workplace for "health and safety" reasons are going over the top, according to the Health and Safety Executive.

In the latest in its health and safety "myth of the month" series, the HSE says:

Most organisations including HSE and local councils manage to put up their decorations, celebrating the spirit of Christmas without a fuss. They just sensibly provide their staff with suitable step ladders to put up decorations rather than expecting staff to balance on wheelie chairs.

Fair enough, but I draw the line at putting tinsel around my computer monitor.
