The survey found that roughly one in three respondents (33%) do not feel comfortable taking personal time off/vacation days.

 

Moreover, nearly one-third (32%) say they’ve consistently placed work commitments over family/personal commitments and fewer than half (48%) say their organization as a whole values their life outside work.
