Almost everyone has worked in an environment where, on paper, there’s a great vacation policy, but, in reality, employees aren’t taking advantage of it. Today, there are several examples of companies, that are getting creative to ensure PTO is used and that 'out of office' means just that.
We've reached peak summer out of office scaries season. It's just like the Sunday scaries—only it usually hits for more than one day at a time, and it can come on any day of the week. Because of this added stress, taking a vacation can truly be a taxing experience where"out of office" might be a physical state but not a mental one—a burden that's increasingly causing some to forgo the benefit all-together.
“Moz offers a hybrid unlimited paid time off plan, with 21 days as the guideline. The hours reset at the start of every year, so there's no need to build it up over time. And the detail that most Mozzers brag about: every vacation is apaid vacation.
Adobe has found that the best way to get their employees to unplug is to literally shut down the office. Except for rotating core teams who work to ensure customers continue to be supported, all North America offices shut down for one week, twice a year. “As the leader of employee experience at Adobe, I am acutely aware of the role our leaders play in setting the tone for individuals to have an actual break. If we never go off the grid, then others won’t believe they can. My message to my employees is this: today, we integrate work and life, and it's essential to set boundaries and invest in your personal life by taking time off. Time away allows individuals to really reflect upon personal and professional goals,” says Morris.
