A new workplace trend is keeping employees from taking advantage of their paid time off, and they may need a nudge from their managers in the right direction.
“Holiday hoarding” refers to the habit of letting PTO build up. Employees may feel as though they are under too much pressure or might worry that they will fall behind at their job if they take the time off. And while being committed to a career can be rewarding, doing so at the expense of their own health and well-being will end poorly for both employees and employers.
