INTRODUCTION

• Some jobs demand a significant amount of contribution for long hours which

can be exhausted and frustrated.

• It is important to spend some time with friends and family, particularly if hectic

work makes it impossible for you to visit them regularly.

• Here is the list of some tips on how you could plan your work break times and

take a little trip or a vacation to meet your folks.

THE BOSS AT YOUR WORKPLACE• It is important to inform your manager well in advance, preferably bringing out

two dates in case one of them is rejected.

• Talk to your team-mates about the workload that your team would have to bear

in your absence.

• It is highly suggested to organise and finish some of the crucial tasks before

you leave.

• The Boss would at this juncture be all too happy to assist you in organising your

tasks and to grant you official break times at work.

THE COLLEAGUE WHO YOU WORK WITH

• A trade off would be mutually beneficial to have a peaceful work break times.

• For example, if any of your team-mate applies for a leave, you should help

him/her but you should make sure that you get precedence the next time in

exchange for your ‘sacrifice’ and vice versa.

• However, in case of head-on holiday clashes, may the best man win.

THE WORK TRAINING

• One might not always have the luxury of having a colleague with the same job

profile who could step right in to share your work load.

• In this case, training a colleague with the finer aspects of your work would ease

both of your hassles in the long run.

THE COMMUNICATIONS REGARDING WORK

• It becomes is annoying if you get a call from your colleagues, clients or

customers during your work break time.

• Setting up a vacation auto-reply message on your email service provider would

help you avoid such situation.

THE TIME

• It would be a good idea to figure out your company’s rhythm in order to gauge a

lean period.

• When going away for a work break vacation, it wouldn’t hit the team or the

company significantly.

• For some companies, this would be around April – the end of the financial year.

• Long weekends might also be a good bet.
