Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)

There are not many formal extra-curricular activities at my workplace, but there are still opportunities to get involved socially. Staff occasionally take part in team-building days, social events, and informal gatherings, which help build good working relationships. Although there aren’t structured clubs or sports teams, the environment is friendly, and there are chances to connect with colleagues outside of day-to-day tasks.
