Ep 29 - Vacation's All I Ever Wanted

Ep 29 - Vacation's All I Ever Wanted

Heading into the July 4th holiday in the US we discuss the value of vacations and how they can affect your company. Stats we cite during the podcast:
  • Vacationers experience an 82 percent increase in job performance
  • 34% take under half of their allotted PTO time each year
  • For the first time in recorded history, more than half of Americans (55%) left vacation days unused, which equates to 658 million unused vacation days. ("Americans are effectively volunteering hundreds of millions of days of free work for their employers, which results in $61.4 billion in forfeited benefits.")
  • People who took fewer than 10 of their vacation days per year had a 34.6% likelihood of receiving a raise or bonus in a three-year period of time. People who took more than 10 of their vacation days had a 65.4% chance of receiving a raise or bonus.
