As part of the olipop “Summer Recarge” initiative, soda producers are promoting paid leave.
According to this program, employees are recommended to rest this summer. Ben Goodwin, CEO of Olipop, said in the HR DIVE, “It’s not mandatory. If you don’t take PTOs, there’s no punishment. What we actually wanted to do was to encourage people to actually take it.
Unlimited PTO Catch -22
Originally, GOODWIN said, “I knew that managers had to encourage it,” to work with the Olipop’s HR team to make an unlimited PTO plan. “I wanted it to be unlimited because it was really important for our employees to feel like being treated like adults.

OLIPOP adopts a flexible PTO structure to meet the sick days and childcare demands and encourage personal welfare, while wanting to provide vacation time, GOODWIN said.
Goodwin said, “We have a high -functional team that is very motivated and participated. And many people are actually participating in our mission. “
Nevertheless, he looked at the study of unlimited PTOs. I do not spend the time I need.
“I think I have seen some of these trends in our own time -off behavior.” This is an amazing way we can invest in the place where we have a mouth, and we actively provide and encourage people to maintain healthy work and life balance and spend time. “
How was the idea of summer recharging?
The internal summer vacation initiative is rooted in external summer advertising campaigns. GOODWIN said, “I wanted to have fun this summer, and there is a fun drink here.
GOODWIN said, “When we had a mind after that plan, we decided to turn our attention inward and check if we were doing the same thing for the employee community.
As part of OLIPOP’s Summer PTO Initiative, leadership is asking employees to take off for five consecutive days between June and September.
Like consumer prizes, OLIPOP staff also have a chance to get summer vacation. When a PTO request occurs, each individual employee will enter the lottery for a $ 1,000 travel service per month.
“We know that people are doing fair and benefits analysis for the industry, so we know that people are paying fair and equal to the market. Theoretically, if you work here, you will be able to go on vacation. Especially because we are on a vacation, we don’t lose money to leave.”
Nevertheless, Goodwin admitted that “going on vacation is expensive.”
“You can technically use money as you want, but our hope is to use money to actually make your vacation better.”
OLIPOP’s CEO hope to get out of PTO push
There are two reasons for Olipop’s summer vacation initiative.
Goodwin emphasized the importance of creative recharging, saying, “Basically: Everyone is out of the hips. Don’t get burned. Spend time with loved ones.”
He also provides a great opportunity to send a clear clear message to the company, “This is not for our unlimited PTO, but actually used.” “
