About National Hug Your Boss Day

National Hug Your Boss Day was created by TipTopJob.com back in 2008.
The idea behind launching the day was to promote healthy workplace relationships. We believe that if you like your boss and colleagues then you are more than likely to enjoy your job and this in turn may lead to better morale/motivation at work and therefore productivity. We are not saying this is always going to be the case but it is the logic behind the fun!!
We figure that because you spend most of your waking day with those at work, why not make it a more enjoyable experience by getting along with everyone and trying to develop the relationships you have?

Our Mission

To promote healthy working relationships worldwide and provide assistance to those who need help to better their relationships with colleagues and managers.
