- n. An employee's yearly allotment of vacation days. Example Citation: The survey also found U.S. employees tend to divide their time off into one full "power week," utilizing the rest of their vacation bank as days sprinkled across the calendar to make long weekends or extend holiday breaks.

Dave Grannan, chief executive officer of Cambridge, Mas... [查看更多]
