Are employees working while vacationing? Or are they vacationing while they’re working?
It can be hard to tell: 72% of employees say they work while on PTO, according to a recent survey from employee experience transformation company Perceptyx.
Working on PTO can be a sign of deeply-rooted cultural issues, said Emily Killham, senior director at Perceptyx and head of the Center for Workforce Transformation. She shared with HR Brew what people pros should know about the growing trend of “workcationing.”
What’s the deal? The Perceptyx survey identified three types of employee vacationers: Planned workcationers, unplanned workcationers, and true vacationers, Kilham told HR Brew.
