Thus we may get some diseases, such as cervical spondylosis and more serious sudden cardiac death. It is high time to give priority to employees' health. In my opinion, giving at least a 4-week holiday not only means enough time to relax, but also time to reflect. It can improve employees' enthusiasm about work and stimulate their innovative ability. They will also feel less anxious so that they can be in a good mood for creating new things. Liken to natural resources, human creativity also needs to be sustainably developed. What's more, people can use the holiday to deal with personal errands, such as weddings. All in all, if we always underscore working longer, it may undermine the healthy competition environment. After all, working longer doesn't mean working better. Conversely, employees can pay more attention to improve their efficiency. Giving at least a 4-week holiday helps employees strike a balance between life and work. Play hard, and then work hard.
