It used to be...
....the case that in many finance jobs, you had to take two weeks consecutive leave from your job every year. This was not out of altruism - this was to ensure that any fraudulent scam you might have running would probably come unravelled during the two weeks you were off, and they could sack you (and possibly prosecute you). Certainly, when I retired five years ago from a US bank, the requirement still existed.
However, there was NOTHING to stop you from logging in from home during this two week break to (potentially) keep the scam running. We used to try to insist that when you went on holiday, your login was temporarily disabled until you returned. But we could never get this agreed by senior management....because they wanted people to login while they were on holiday and keep an eye on their mail, and potentially fix any issues...
Oh well...
