July brings high temperatures—and calendars full of vacation requests. For many companies, this season presents a real operational challenge: how to maintain continuity without overloading those who stay?


From a Human Resources perspective, this period can actually be a great opportunity to demonstrate leadership, planning, and a people-first mindset. Here are a few key points that make the difference:

Summer Vacation: How to Keep Operations Running Without Hurting Workplace Environment

1. Planning ahead is essentialIt sounds obvious, but many companies still improvise. A well-structured vacation calendar, combined with open communication, helps avoid bottlenecks and unnecessary tension.

2. Balance rest with operationsThe right to rest is not just a legal issue—it’s a strategic one. Teams that take vacations come back more focused, healthier, and with a better attitude. Denying or postponing vacations “due to lack of staff” only leads to turnover, burnout, and underperformance.

3. What if someone leaves right when I need them most?That’s where strategic outsourcing comes in. At InterHuman, we help companies cover temporary absences with trained personnel, legally employed and ready to integrate quickly. From administrative to operational roles, we adapt to each client’s needs.

4. A healthy workplace environment also boosts productivityWhen the team sees there’s support, empathy, and clear solutions during vacation periods, it strengthens the organizational culture. And that, in the long run, drives better results.

In summary: Vacation season shouldn’t be seen as a threat—it’s a chance to strengthen processes, teams, and leadership. At InterHuman, we’ve been helping companies do just that for over 35 years.
