Holiday allowance 'not being taken by tenth of London managers'

Many managers in London are failing to take their full holiday entitlement, new research has highlighted.

According to a study conducted by LondonlovesJobs, one in ten workers has failed to take any of their holiday entitlement this year.

The tough economic climate has been blamed for being a main reason why London managers are choosing to stay in the office instead of enjoying some time off.

Furthermore, 20 per cent of those surveyed admitted to only using half of their annual holiday, while 70 per cent are set to fail to use even a quarter of their annual allowance.

Katie Leaver, editor of LondonlovesJobss, noted: "Unfortunately this is a sad reflection on the pressures faced by private sector workers in today's economic climate."

Recently though, the Office for National Statistics published data which reveals that the average working week for a UK employee is now 36.3 hours – down significantly from the 38.1 hours clocked in 1992.
