Didn't use all of your vacation days last year? You're not alone. <A HREF="http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1759,2121108,00.asp?kc=EWRSS03119TX1K0000594">More than half of workers don't use all of their vacation time,</A> finds a survey published on April 18 by Hudson, an employment services firm.

The survey suggests that workers are apprehensive about using all of their vacation time allotted in a year, fearful that it will leave them without any room for flexibility should an urgent situation emerge. Of the workers surveyed, 56 percent said they did not use all of their vacation time each year and nearly one-third (30 percent) said they take less than half of their allotted time off.
