Workcations may be the new work from home. According to a recent Priceline survey, 60% of Americans say remote work has encouraged them to work wherever and take more workcations. Parents were also more likely than non-parents to say that remote work has encouraged them to take more workcations. The desire to have a flexible work environment is strong, and YPulse’s recent employment and career goals data shows that 55% of employed 20-38-year-olds working remotely plan to work from home post-COVID. Not only are workers excited to travel more this summer—and do so without having to take PTO—75% of employees say remote work has made work-life balance more achievable, and some have even embraced “van life” to travel full-time.
