Court Workers’ Day in Ukraine is marked on 15 December. It was established by a presidential decree in 2000 and covers not only judges but everyone who keeps a court running: court clerks, judges’ assistants, court ushers, registry and archive staff. Below are formal wishes from management, warm words for colleagues, wishes for a judge, short texts for a card, verses and tips on what is appropriate to give. Other professional dates for the year are in our calendar of professional holidays in Ukraine.

How to greet court workers
For a formal greeting, choose a restrained tone and polite address, and mention responsibility and the rule of law. With colleagues, warm personal words and light humour work well, as long as they do not hint at specific cases. Avoid discussing court decisions or parties to proceedings in your wishes.
How to celebrate with the team
Thanks and certificates — recognise everyone's contribution, even with a few words at a team meeting.
Morning flowers for the office — a bouquet for the team or small arrangements on each desk set a festive mood.
A team photo — take a group picture to hang in the office or post on the website.
A wishes board — everyone leaves a few kind words for colleagues on sticky notes.
An informal get-together — lunch, a picnic or a board-game evening after work.
Toasts for the team celebration
Colleagues, here's to our profession! May our work bring not only a salary but also pride in what we do.
A toast to a team that isn't afraid of deadlines, inspections or Mondays. Cheers!
To the experience of those who've been here for years and the energy of those who've just joined. Together we're strong!
Here's to celebrating next year's professional holiday with new achievements and the same wonderful team!
What to write on a card with flowers
Happy birthday! May this bouquet remind you how many people love you.
For the best moments of the year — flowers, sincere words and hugs.
May every day be as bright as this bouquet.
Happy birthday! Wishing you health, peace and joy in the little things.
Sign the card by hand: even two lines in your handwriting mean more than a long printed message.

What to give on Court Workers’ Day
Gifts to officials are limited by anti-corruption law, so the best choice is sincere words, a card from the team or a small symbolic bouquet. A potted plant suits an office well: it reminds of the holiday for a long time and never looks excessive. Restrained arrangements in white, green or burgundy tones fit a business setting.
On 15 December. It was established by a decree of the President of Ukraine in 2000.
