In a Pew survey, which included more than 5,900 US workers, “About six-in-ten workers (62%) say it’s extremely important to them personally to have a job that offers paid time off.”
“… more people said paid time off was “extremely” important to them than those who said the same about employer-sponsored health insurance, retirement programs, or paid family or medical leave, reports Bloomberg.
“Only 48% of US workers say they use all their vacation days, according to a new survey from Pew Research Center. Those who don’t take all their time off say it’s because they don’t need it, or they worry about falling behind at work or feel badly about co-workers carrying their load. A few even think vacation time hurts their chances for promotions or could cost them their job.”
