Last year saw the rise of “quiet vacationing,” a trend in which an increasing number of employees took time off from work without informing their managers or logging the days into their HR platform. While quiet vacations will likely continue to pervade U.S. work culture, one chief human resources officer believes she has a solution.
Jennifer Kraszewski, CHRO at HR software solutions company Paycom, is advising employers to embrace “loud vacationing,” a term she coined that centers on the idea of employees feeling encouraged to plan, discuss and look forward to their vacation days. Workers should feel proud they’re taking time off to recharge, underlines Kraszewski.
