TORONTO, Oct. 17, 2016 /CNW/ - On Wednesday, Oct. 19, 2016, Expedia.ca will unveil the national findings of its
14th annual "Vacation Deprivation" survey, which follows the trend of Canadians not taking all of their earned vacation time. The survey, conducted by Northstar Research Partners, reveals the gap between the number of vacation days Canadians receive from employers and how many they actually use and provides a comprehensive look at Canadians' attitudes towards vacation time.
New this year, the survey will also delve into a variety of other trends, including how Millennials are using (or not using!) their vacation time compared to older generations, how technology and social media fit into Canadians' vacation planning and experiences, and more.
Lauren Reimer, Managing Director and General Manager, Expedia Canada and Beverly Beuermann-King, Canadian work-life balance expert are available for media interviews beginning on October 19, 2016, to provide insight on the following topics:
