Recent surveys have found that nearly half of all working
Americans do not take a single vacation day every year. There are sound reasons
why employees need to take vacation time and Enterprises TV shares what they
are.
Hard work and strong work ethic are virtues many workers
have. Those who get to work on time, and maybe even a little earlier than the
start time, usually begin the day as soon as they sit down. They put in more
than 40 hours per week and often are not compensated for the extra time. Some don’t
use company paid time off to relax, refresh and rejuvenate. Some use a few days
they’ve earned and other none at all. Why is this?
Economists note that stagnant wages are one reason why some
working Americans don’t use vacation days. Workers in lower paying jobs such as
those in retail or the food and beverage industry are not paid enough to afford
a vacation and usually are not given paid time off. The travel website Skift conducted a survey on
vacation time and found that 42 percent of American workers do not take one
vacation day all year. Employment site Glassdoor found that some workers use
only half the time they earn every year. The main reason is employees feel that
no one else can do their job. This is followed by some fearing they will fall
behind in their work and worry about possible job loss.
Enterprises TV notes that it is beneficial to take some time
off from work, and more so when it is earned as it gives the worker some
urgently needed down time. Employees who don’t take time off are at risk of
developing stress-related health issues such as high blood pressure, risk of
stroke and obesity. Take your paid time off America . Your body and mind need
it.
