Let’s talk about time off management. 

If done correctly, it makes a huge impact on your culture.

Unfortunately, many U.S. employees feel like vacations are discouraged. A new hire excited about generous PTO becomes disengaged when they notice that their co-workers aren’t taking vacations. Or when they do take a vacation, their supervisor implies that they should answer client emails or log in remotely to meetings.

PTO is one of the critical benefits to associates.

Create a vacation culture at your organization. Encourage vacations. Set a good example.

Don’t expect associates to check in while they’re away. They should have the chance to disconnect completely.

Vacations raise employee morale and productivity.
