Frequently asked questions

What should I send an employee who is off sick with a cold or flu?

A get well hamper filled with comforting snacks and treats is a thoughtful choice for an unwell team member. It shows you care about their wellbeing without needing any in-person contact. Hampers With Bite delivers straight to their door, so they can rest and recover at home.

Why do employers send hampers to sick staff during winter?

Winter brings a rise in colds and flu, which means more staff taking time off to recover. Sending a hamper is a simple way for an employer to show genuine care and lift morale. A small gesture like this can help staff feel valued and supported while they are unwell.

Is a gift hamper a safe way to support someone who is contagious?

Yes, a hamper can be delivered to the door without any direct contact, which keeps everyone safe. This makes it a practical option when someone is too unwell to leave the house. Hampers With Bite delivers Australia-wide, so distance is not a barrier.

What goes well in a get well hamper for someone with a cold or flu?

Comforting items such as soothing teas, biscuits, sweet treats and easy to enjoy snacks work well when someone is under the weather.

Can I send a get well hamper to a colleague's home address?

Are hampers suitable for sending to multiple unwell staff at once?
