Beyond the paycheck, vacation time is what workers are looking for, revealed a new Accountemps survey.

Asking more than 2,700 workers for their most important factor when considering a job offer, it found that 26% looked at vacation time while corporate culture (24%) and career advancement potential (21%) came in close behind.

Rounding up the top five factors were work-from-home options (11%) and professional development/training (9%).

Digging deeper, the survey revealed that workers aged 55 and older are more interested in paid time off (29%) than those between 35 to 54 (27%) and 18 to 34 (22%).

On the other hand, those aged 18 to 34 preferred career advancement potential (30%) above all else, compared to those between 35 to 54 (22%) and 55 and older (10%).

By gender, female respondents prioritised vacation time (27%) as the key factor in employment decisions, while men felt corporate culture (25%) is most critical.
