Why haven't you gone and reported this to the labor standards bureau? Technically if your company pays you an incorrect amount 2 months in a row you can quit and get unemployment right away.


How much do you get for unemployment and how long does it last?

Also, is there a certain amount of time that you need to be working before you can claim it? How would you go about doing so?

Thanks! I asked because I accepted a job with them.

Is there anything I can do to ensure that I get placed in a location I want?


Do not sign contract unless it states the desired location. I'm sure you will be asked to teach outside your area though.

Thanks again! Yeah, that's what I've read. I'm more concerned about where I will be living (although I don't want a long commute) because I want to be in Osaka-fu and this job had a listing for it.

You have to be working either 6 months or a year to claim it. It's 60% of your salary and lasts at least 3 months. You go to Hello Work to claim it.
