Never Use Your Vacation Days? This Is Why You Should
Americans aren't strangers to working long hours. Not only are we used to putting in our time at the office, but for plenty of us, the workday doesn't end once we're back at home. Whether it's accessing company emails remotely or responding to calls that come in late, many of us can easily say we spend the majority of our waking hours working in some shape or form.
You'd think, in that case, that more workers would embrace the idea of a much-needed break from the office. But not so. According to a 2016 Bankrate study, more than 50% of U.S. workers give up at least some of their paid vacation days each year. Worse yet, in a 2014 survey, 42% of Americans claimed they don't take vacation time at all.
