Keep the work force and your clients happy by maintaining an
organized system that allows your employees the ability to take advantage of
getting away from the workplace without disrupting the actual workplace. At Herndon
Recognition, we utilize a sign up calendar and submit vacation requests to
management. The department manager then approves or suggests alternate dates to
ensure there will be enough team members scheduled to attend to ongoing project
details while the employee is on leave. This reduces stress for the
company as well as the employee because it allows the employee to feel confident their
immediate work is being attended to in their absence.
One of the best ways we communicate in the office
environment while on vacation is to have the vacationing employee set up email
auto responder and voicemail. This communicates to clients and associates that
the employee is away on vacation, listing dates and offering other team members
to go to for urgent matters in their absence.
There’s no
questioning that a rested, balanced worker is going to be more productive and contribute more than a disgruntled, over-worked employee. Create and maintain a
system that will allow employees the much needed break from the workplace.
Co-workers will be more likely to pick up the slack of the ongoing projects for
their team members while away when they know they can be confident that they will be
given the same support when they go on vacation. A well planned vacation can truly rejuvenate an employee.
