We know not everyone works in an office - and work can look very different based on a person’s industry and profession. Desk accessories and office supplies make great gifts for employees who work in a traditional office setting or on their computers from home – but what about those who are on their feet all day, outdoors, or working in less traditional settings?

A few weeks ago, we covered our top choices for branded gifts to welcome your new office staff–but today, we’re focusing on those employees and businesses who don’t operate in an office environment.

Here are some of our favorite picks for branded products that can work for professionals in a wide range of industries and working arrangements:

Handy Accessories

Some things are just universally useful, like our slim power bank. With this portable charger, your team will have the security of knowing they’ll never run out of battery life when they are on the go. It’s also a great idea to have power banks on hand in your restaurant or client waiting room, where your customers and staff alike will benefit from these super-powered promo items!

While we’re on the topic of restaurants, the 3-in-1 corkscrew is the perfect tool to gift your front-of-house staff. Your team of servers and bartenders are sure to get great use out of them–and when they do use them, they’ll help present your brand in a positive light! Having your staff decked out with custom-branded equipment doesn’t just show that you care about them, it also gives an impression of your business as polished and professional.

Another great accessory to gift to your staff is this compact and convenient hand cleanser spray bottle. It’s universally important to keep your hands clean, especially in a job where you’re touching many surfaces, visiting many places, or interacting with lots of people. Gifting your team with a portable hand cleanser both encourages those healthy habits and shows your staff that you care about their safety and wellbeing.

Bags

Everyone loves a good bag, it’s something that can come in handy no matter what a person’s job or your interests may be. What’s more, bags are also regarded as one of the most effective promotional products for generating impressions for your brand! With that in mind, it’s important to choose carefully to create a high-use item that your team will want to keep and use often.

If your goal is to find a bag that your team can carry while they’re on the job, the budget fanny pack could be a great option for you. This very simple fanny pack is compact, with just enough room for the essentials when your staff is working outdoors, out on the retail floor, or serving tables.

For a bag with a little more room, the budget backpack has the same great, no-frills vibe but offers much more storage space. Employees who travel often or work outside may appreciate this pack, but it also makes a great gift for your team to use in their personal lives when traveling to school, extracurricular activities, or weekend getaways.

Home

A great way to build strong connections with your employees is to give them gifts meant to be enjoyed outside of work. Give them things that they can bring into their homes, like a cozy personalized blanket or custom-printed coffee mug! If you’re celebrating a big milestone or commemorating an important event, you might also consider gifting them with a customized picture frame.

Promotional products (including employee gifts) have the greatest reach and positive impact when their recipients find them useful, so it’s important to choose branded employee gifts that are directly related to what your employees do, or are suited to their lifestyles and can be enjoyed and used outside of work. Choose from some of these items to create some high-impact employee gifts for your non-office staff!
