Namuhla iNational Plan For Vacation Day, futhi amalungu emboni yezokuvakasha ahlanganyela ne-US Travel Association ukuze akhuthaze bonke abantu baseMelika ukuthi bazinike isikhathi sabo sokuphumula kuze kuphele unyaka, ekuqaleni konyaka.
Imboni yezokuvakasha yenza imizamo eminingi eyahlukene yokukhuthaza abantu baseMelika ukuthi bahlele kusenesikhathi isikhathi sabo sokuphumula, ihlinzeka ngamathiphu okuhamba, izinsiza zokuhlela, imibono ngendawo okuyiwa kuyo, namadili akhethekile futhi inikeza ukugubha uHlelo Lukazwelonke Losuku Lokuvakasha. Sesha i-#PlanForVacation ezinkundleni zokuxhumana ukuze uthole lezi zinsiza futhi uqale ukuhlela uhambo lwakho.
Minyaka yonke, abasebenzi abangaphezu kwengxenye (amaphesenti angu-52) bayehluleka ukusebenzisa sonke isikhathi sabo sokuphumula. Ngo-2017, izinsuku zeholide eziyizigidi ezingu-705 zashiywa zingasetshenziswa - kusukela ezinsukwini eziyizigidi ezingu-662 ngonyaka odlule.
Ngaphezu kwalokho, ezinsukwini eziyi-17.2 zeholide isisebenzi esivamile esizithatha ngonyaka, zisebenzisa isikhathi esingaphansi kwengxenye yaleso sikhathi ukuze zihambe, ziphuthelwe ithuba lokubona iMelika neminikelo yayo eminingi ehlukahlukene. Lokhu kwenzeka naphezu kocwaningo olubonisa izinzuzo ezimangalisayo zokuthatha izinsuku zeholide ukuze uhambe—kungakhathaliseki ukuthi kuseduze noma kude kangakanani—kuhlanganise nobudlelwano obungcono phakathi kwabantu, ukusebenza komsebenzi, nempilo engokomzimba nokuphila kahle.
Lezo zinzuzo—kanye nomlayezo okhethekile onxusa abantu baseMelika ukuthi basebenzise ngokugcwele Uhlelo Lukazwelonke Losuku Lweholide—zifakwe udokotela ohlinzayo nomsakazi we-TV uDkt. Mehmet Oz ohlelweni lwakhe lwangoMsombuluko.
“UHlelo Lukazwelonke Losuku Lokuvakasha luyithuba eliyingqayizivele lokuba abantu baseMelika babekele eceleni isikhathi sokuhlela amaholide unyaka wonke, futhi bavule izinzuzo eziningi zobuchwepheshe nezomuntu siqu zokuhamba,” kusho uMongameli we-US Travel Association kanye ne-CEO uRoger Dow. “IMelika inikeza okuthile kuwo wonke umuntu—kungakhathaliseki ukuthi ufuna ulwandle, izindawo zomlando, idolobha elisha, noma indlwana esezintabeni, sikhuthaza wonke umuntu waseMelika ukuba ahlele isikhathi sawo sokuphumula ukuze ahlole izwe lethu elihle.”
Isici esibaluleke kakhulu ekuthatheni amaholide silula: ukuhlela. Ucwaningo lubonisa ukuthi “abahleli” basebenzisa isikhathi sabo esiningi, bathathe amaholide amade, futhi bajabule kakhudlwana.
• Amaphesenti angu-53 abahleli athathe sonke isikhathi sabo seholide ngokumelene namaphesenti angu-43 abangahleli.
• Abahleli nabo banamathuba amaningi kunabantu abangahlelile ukuthi basebenzise sonke noma isikhathi esiningi bengekho ukuze bahambe (amaphesenti angama-33 ukuya kwayi-18).
• Abahleli abaningi babika ukuthi “bajabule kakhulu” noma “bajabule ngokwedlulele” ngobudlelwano babo bomuntu siqu (amaphesenti angu-81 uma kuqhathaniswa namaphesenti angu-68), ezempilo nokuphila kahle (amaphesenti angu-56 uma kuqhathaniswa namaphesenti angu-43), inkampani (amaphesenti angu-57 uma kuqhathaniswa namaphesenti angu-50) , nomsebenzi (amaphesenti angu-56 uma kuqhathaniswa namaphesenti angu-48) uma kuqhathaniswa nabangebona abahleli.
Abaqashi kufanele futhi baqaphele: ukuvumela abasebenzi ukuthi bathathe isikhathi sabo sokuphumula kunomthelela ekukhiqizeni okuphezulu, ukusebenza kahle, kanye nesimo sengqondo esihle ngomsebenzi. Amaholide nawo abalulekile ekukhuthazeni ukucabanga okunobuhlakani kubasebenzi.
Ukusiza abantu baseMelika ukuthi bahlele, i-US Travel Association yethule Ithuluzi Lokuhlela Iholide elisebenzisanayo. Ngokufaka inombolo yezinsuku zokuphumula ezizuziwe, abasebenzisi bangahlela uhambo lwabo noma amaholide onyaka, bathumele emsebenzini wabo noma kukhalenda yomuntu siqu, futhi babelane nomndeni wabo nabasebenza nabo.
“Ngiyethemba ukuthi uzojoyina imboni yezokuvakasha ekugubheni i-National Plan for Vacation Day, futhi wenze unyaka wezi-2019 ube unyaka ohlela ngawo izinsuku zakho zeholide, futhi uthathe isikhathi sakho esikufanele ukuze uhambe,” kusho u-Dow.
