The Eveready Indian

Further to my 2nd December post - 'The Vacation Phobia' there is still more evidence to suggest that Indians are allergic to holidays.
Regus Survey- 2011 findings -

The statistics is alarming and shows that a very high majority of people in India are working during their holidays. Is it having an impact on their health and personal lives? From an organizational view-point is it leading to quick burnout and drop in productivity-levels? Is it affecting their ‘engagement’ with their work and with the organization?
Interestingly, the same survey also indicates that not much work is actually done by the staff working during holidays.

So who wins in this 'no-holiday' syndrome - the individual, the company or the family? None, I guess! 
Anyways for all of those who have choosen to be with their families during the coming holidays  - a VERY HAPPY CHRISTMAS & NEW YEAR!

And for the 'Eveready Indian' my message is -
