The company I work for implemented what I think is a pretty novel solution. Mandatory vacation.
Everyone gets 4 weeks PTO, and more can be awarded on a discretionary basis.
As the end of the year nears, if it becomes evident that an employee will not be able to use all their vacation up by the end of the year, their system access is revoked and they are forced to take vacation.
I don't think this policy has actually been tested, since everyone just happily takes their time off. But it's a cute way of telling people that you're serious about them taking time off.
- jasonpeacock 9y agoYes, I wish more companies took this approach. It can easily be planned for and scheduled appropriately - you know how much time everyone has remaining. And disabling system access is good - they should not be on "vacation" and still responding to emails on their phone, etc.
