Take a week’s off and head for a vacation this Christmas

Construction industry always remains busy irrespective of which month of the year it is. So basically even if it is Christmas time, you will still have work to do, will still have projects to complete and will have to deal with all those things that you have been doing right from the beginning of the year. It just means that you got to take some time off from your busy schedule and go out for a vacation and you will not get any better time other than Christmas. What you can do is just assign the work among the people you trust the most and believe that they can take good care of the business till you return. However, try to return after having a short vacation so that you can take charge of your responsibilities and allow them to take leave in case if they have also planned for a short trip. You can possibly talk this out with them and chalk out a plan as to who will take how many days leave.

Do not take additional projects during this season:-

It is wise to not take any new or additional projects during Christmas. It is particularly the time when most of your laborers, engineers, operators etc. will go on a leave. You may be witnessing a good number of people have already applied for leaves from the start of December. By this you can easily make out if you will have enough staff available to start a new project. If you do intend for a new project, make sure that you inform the stakeholders that the work will begin after December once you have your entire workforce in place. A clear instruction should also be given to your workforce that they got to work for extra hours so that you can meet the pending work that has caused due to the vacation.

Make your vacation count:-

It matters a lot to your family when you take them to an exotic location and spend openheartedly giving them all the luxuries to make the vacation a memorable one. It is important that you make this vacation count. If needed check with your family where they want to go and accordingly plan the trip. Take them to a place which they have never seen but also witnesses the flavor of Christmas there. Take them to a place where people are celebrating Christmas but probably in a different manner. They will know about a new culture which will definitely be a good learning for them.

Give gifts to your employees before heading for the vacation:-

Christmas is all about celebration and giving gifts to your people. So before you head for your vacation, it is crucial that you give away the gifts that you have got for your employees. Do not keep them waiting till you come because by the time you return, Christmas will be over and then there is no use of giving away those gifts. It should be given before the celebration begins.
