Are you taking a Summer vacation?

What’s the word for the Summer of 2020?

Staycations.

A new survey asked workers if they’re planning to take a vacation this Summer and a whopping 75% say no.

37% are saving their vacation time for later in the year when they hope it’ll be okay to travel again, 22% won’t take time off because they’re worried about money and 14% won’t take a vacation because they have too much work to do.

The survey also found only 25% of people say their company or boss has encouraged them to take some time off and 9% have actually been discouraged from doing so.

Are your Summer plans on hold?
