Taking a Real Vacation: How to Fully Disconnect from Work
Champaign, IL - January 25, 2023
We all need a break from work. But it can be hard to switch
off and enjoy your vacation if you’re constantly worrying about what’s
happening back in the office. Here are some tips from a leader in staffing
solutions on how to truly disconnect from work and make the most of your
time away.
Work Ahead
If you want to fully relax on vacation, one of the best
things you can do is plan ahead. Get everything
done before you leave so there’s no unfinished business left behind. This way,
you won’t have to worry about getting swamped with emails when you return, and
you can use your time away for some much-needed rest and relaxation.
Set
Boundaries Before Your Last Day
You should also make sure that everyone knows what your
expectations are before your last day at work. That includes setting boundaries
with colleagues who may try to contact you while you’re away. Let them know
that they can reach out if it’s an urgent matter, but otherwise, keep
communication minimal until after your return date. It might also help to set
up an auto-response email so people know when they can expect a response from
you again.
Have an
Accountability Co-worker
It helps to have someone who will hold you accountable while
on vacation too—someone who will remind you not to check emails or take calls
while away if needed. Having this person could be just the extra push needed to
ensure that everyone sticks with their plan and makes the most of their holiday
time! Plus, it's always nice having someone else around who is just as
committed as you!
Vacations are supposed to be a time
of rest and relaxation – something we all need occasionally! By planning
ahead, setting boundaries before leaving, and having an accountability
co-worker, anyone can learn how to fully disconnect from work and genuinely
enjoy their time away from the office. We hope that these tips from your local employment assistance firm will
help you to truly disconnect and recharge!
