Corporate Gift Giving Guidelines

by Susan Kurth Clot deBroissia

Gift giving is an excellent way to build or maintain business relations, whether with an important client
or a valued employee.

For example, many companies place restrictions on the value of the gift or on the situations in which gifts may be given. Ask the personnel department for the
