## Transcript

Media outlets label it as a workplace phenomenon. In the race to keep up or stay ahead, Americans are forfeiting vacation. According to a new study conducted by Alamo Rent- A- Car, one in four millenials say they worked every day of their vacation, and returned to work feeling less productive. And another study indicates that work martyr lifestyle hasn't eased up. They're may be a good reason why. The United States is the only advanced economy that does not guarantee paid time off to its employees. According to a report from the Center for Economic and Policy Research A survey conducted by Alamo shows 40 % of Americans didn't use all of their paid time off last year.

Project time off indicates workers claim an inability to catch back up, and a feeling no one else could efficiently fill in for them, as the main reasons for not taking vacation Dates. But this workaholic attitude is costing individuals and businesses alike. According to the Wall Street Journal it's costing businesses a whopping $ 224 million annually and liabilities for accumulated employee vacation time.
