In many parts of Europe, it’s common for workers to take off weeks at a time, especially during the summer. Envious Americans say it’s time for the U.S. to follow suit.
Some 66% of U.S. workers say companies should adopt extended vacation policies, like a month off in August, in their workplaces, according to a Morning Consult survey of 1,047 U.S. adults.
Yeah me neither. Which is why I’m OK with my current contract which blocks only 3 out of 23/24~ paid time off on December, as a general rule.
In my previous company it was hassle the process to ask for not taking any time off in August (or around August).
