What this means
Mixed employer types.
Sample sizes are small while the board is new — treat these as directional, and add your own number to sharpen them.
Whatever the school type, check the same five things
- Salary split — an ¥18,000 package that is ¥8,000 base + ¥10,000 "allowance" affects severance, overtime and insurance. Details →
- Social insurance really enrolled — promised in writing is not the same as paid. How to verify →
- Probation length — capped by law at 2 months for a 1–3 year contract. Rules →
- Resignation penalty — blanket "pay us if you quit" clauses are usually unenforceable. What the law says →
- Visa responsibility — the employer should sponsor and fund your Z visa and work permit. Risks →
