Work culture is pretty different in Japan than in New Zealand, and I think it’s really important to understand that as much as possible if you’re interested in working here. Especially with time off, knowing your rights and what you’re entitled to is important!

I hope this video helped to outline and briefly explain the most common types of time off, and that it was useful to you. (:

Thanks for watching!

  1. Interesting video as always. Do you have any idea if it's common for JET ALT's to take time off/ return home for the Christmas period in December? Or would this be frowned upon?

  2. Super educational video! Thank you! I've lived in Tokyo since April but I never knew any of this!

  3. It's wonderful to see that you are much more comfortable doing talking videos now. I had a marvelous time in Okinawa and Kyushu.
