Sometimes, vacation isn’t all that restful. sharon_epperson reports on how some companies are rethinking vacation time to prevent burnout.

Feeling revitalized is what many employees and their employers both want. Starting this year, accounting and consulting firm PwC is giving its 60,000 U.S. employees two annual company-wide, week-long breaks — one in July and one in December — in addition to vacation time. While it is hard to quantify an increase in productivity, the company says it's a success based on feedback from employees and customers.

A recent Korn Ferry survey found 63% of professionals say they will be taking a shorter vacation this year, and 58% say being away from the office stresses them out more now than in the past. Their top reasons were too much work due to decreases in staff and fear that the work wouldn't be done well.. Shut off notifications from email, Slack and other apps from your smart device.Some things might need attention while you're away.

"I just have an increased comfort level that that things are fine in terms of work and I can enjoy my time away," said Royal about checking in. He also was careful not to let calls interfere with him attending all of the wedding festivities. PWC's Ali Furman spent most of her time out of the office reading books and spending time with family, pictured.
