(Forbes) Â Not taking vacation time is a bad idea, as it harms productivity and the economy. Those are key findings of a new study.
More than forty percent of American workers who received paid time off did not take all of their allotted time last year, despite the obvious personal benefits, according to “An Assessment of Paid Time Off in the U.S.” commissioned by the U.S. Travel Association, a trade group, and completed by Oxford Economics.
Americans left an average of 3.2 paid time off days unused in 2013, totaling 429 million unused days for U.S. workers.
