A recent study conducted by TUI has revealed that over 90% of business owners in the UK find themselves working while on holiday. On average, these business owners take only five days off each year, with many in professions such as personal training, photography, plumbing, and hospitality struggling to completely disconnect from their work responsibilities. The constant need to be available for clients and manage their businesses remotely prevents them from fully enjoying their holidays.
TUI’s Managing Director, Andrew Flintham, highlights the growing trend of entrepreneurs and small business owners finding it difficult to switch off from their work. He stresses the importance of taking proper breaks for overall well-being and productivity. In response to these findings, TUI has launched the ‘Entrepreneurs Escape’ scheme, which offers nominated business owners an opportunity for a well-deserved break. This initiative is designed to provide a complete holiday experience with all expenses paid, allowing these hard-working individuals to recharge and relax.
The ‘Entrepreneurs Escape’ scheme encourages the public to nominate business owners who they believe deserve a holiday. This initiative aims to shed light on the importance of taking time off and the benefits it brings not only to the individual but also to their business. TUI hopes that by offering this opportunity, more business owners will recognise the value of stepping away from work and recharging their batteries.
