Taking time off from work gives the employee space to re-energize and enjoy time away from their working environment. Encouraging employees to take some time off will help to keep a healthy work/life balance and avoid work related stress and burnouts. Taking time off from work will enable employees to not only be more productive and focused at work, but also spend more time with loved ones and increase happiness.
