When overtime starts in Japan
The daily threshold is 8 hours and the weekly threshold is 40 hours. Hours worked beyond either point count as overtime and are paid at 1.25× the regular rate.
Where a figure is not shown, Japan does not set that threshold nationally, or it is left to a collective agreement. Check the source before applying it to a specific contract.
Maximum weekly hours
No maximum weekly hours figure is listed for Japan: the statute cited below does not set one as a weekly ceiling. Daily limits, annual overtime caps and minimum rest periods may still apply, so read the source before planning long weeks.
Rest breaks
A rest break of at least 45 minutes applies once a shift exceeds 6 hours. Unpaid breaks are excluded from paid hours, which is how the hours calculator treats the break field by default.
