Doctors, housekeepers, porters and catering teams among those who'll be working this year
This year, as most of us sit at home and scoff our big Christmas Dinners, not everyone will be with their families.
People across the Island will be working, making sure things keep running.
Our emergency services, those of us looking after animals like farmers or keepers at wildlife park, and even Manx Radio keeping you company on Christmas morning.
Amy Griffiths has been meeting some of the people who keep the hospital running at this time of year:
Airport warns of possible disruption due to low cloud
Landmarks to turn pink to mark Organ Donation Week
